| Um_cara_qualquer | excuse me, I'm a huge fan of ubuntu but I need 2 types of OS to work. When I try to install win 8, I have to choose which partition I want to install like this image: http://s.glbimg.com/po/tt/f/original/2011/09/16/windows8-install-hd.jpg I choose HD with nothing inside, and this message appears: "We could not create a new partition or find an existing one. Check the log files of the installation" | 00:00 |

| Vivekananda | or "somethingg software centre" ( forget the name) | 00:00 |
| micahcowan | semitones, I don't think such a folder exist. | 00:00 |
| micahcowan | But most managed, installable apps will go into /usr/bin anyway | 00:00 |
| Vivekananda | I mean I forgot they name of the application | 00:00 |
| cristina | hm micahcowan lot`s of packeges there | 00:00 |
| semitones | micahcowan: i'm sur eit does! | 00:00 |
| micahcowan | cristina, yes indeed :) | 00:00 |
| semitones | at least it used to | 00:00 |
| semitones | it was like ~/bin or something | 00:00 |
| Vivekananda | The easiest is to click on the software centre and type libre office and then click and install | 00:01 |
| micahcowan | cristina, inkscape, that was the other graphical app I was thinking of | 00:01 |
| cristina | yes ...already there.. | 00:01 |
| cristina | let`s go on | 00:01 |
| cristina | messenger for yahoo ...with webvam | 00:01 |
| micahcowan | semitones, AFAIK, ~/bin isn't automatically added to path if it exists. At least, it didn't used to be. I add mine explicitly | 00:01 |
| cristina | webcam | 00:02 |
| semitones | micahcowan: ok | 00:02 |
| lucas_ | cristina : pidgin | 00:02 |
| cristina | hm...no webcam...or ...i`m to .dumm:)) | 00:02 |
| micahcowan | semitones, Of course, there's nothing to prevent you from having a .bashrc (or whatnot) that does that sort of thing for you, but AFAICT the one automatically provided doesn't do that. | 00:03 |
| === jelatta_away is now known as jelatta | ||
| cristina | how about kopete?...webcam works? | 00:03 |
| micahcowan | (My startup scripts automatically add anything it finds in /opt/*/bin to the PATH.) | 00:03 |
| cristina | and mic ofcourese | 00:04 |
| jrib | micahcowan: the default ~/.profile adds ~/bin to PATH if ~/bin exists | 00:04 |
| cristina | ofcourse | 00:04 |
| semitones | micahcowan: what is .bashrc? | 00:04 |
| semitones | micahcowan: check this out (it's part of ~/.profile) | 00:04 |
| semitones | http://paste.ubuntu.com/5606605/ | 00:04 |
| micahcowan | jrib, weird to me that it would be in there, but not .bashrc. Well, I guess it sort of makes sense, but also means it wouldn't be updated when you open a new window in your term or something | 00:05 |
| micahcowan | semitones, yeah, just saw it. | 00:05 |
| semitones | jrib: micahcowan but does it actually work? | 00:06 |
| jrib | semitones: yes | 00:06 |
| micahcowan | semitones, .profile gets run on a login shell, .bashrc gets run on a non-login shell (when you open a terminal window, that usually opens a non-login shell) | 00:06 |
| jrib | micahcowan: has the advantage that the X environment will be aware of the PATH changes. Nowadays it seems the push is to not even use ~/.profile, but instead use ~/.pam_environment for environment variables (unless you need some scripting logic) | 00:07 |
| micahcowan | jrib, yeah, but then, given that .profile sources .bashrc anyway, if they'd put it in .bashrc it'd be good for both. :) | 00:08 |
| alien2050 | weird... I'm trying to scale a window (Blender) on my second monitor but it sticks to the middle of the screen instead of spanning... even though compiz has "snapping windows" disabled... | 00:08 |
| === r0tha_ is now known as r0tha | ||
| cristina | hei guys webcam works on kopete? | 00:08 |
| micahcowan | The [ -d ] doesn't make much sense to me anyway... after all, there's no harm in adding it to the PATH if it doesn't exist, and that way they can make it exist, and take advantage of it without having to log out/back in again | 00:08 |
| jrib | micahcowan: agreed. I guess there is some negligible advantage to not having more directories than needed in PATH | 00:09 |
| Schrodinger`Cat | hey | 00:09 |
| alien2050 | "launcher capture mouse" also disabled... | 00:09 |
| micahcowan | Got dinged by AndChat15 again... this time ignored by IP... | 00:10 |
| Schrodinger`Cat | i would like to know why somes kernel have linux-image-extra, and some other dont, in this one : http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.8.9-raring/ there is no linux-image-extra, is it a problem ? thanks | 00:10 |
| micahcowan | So, anyone know where I should be looking for what scripts or such get triggered when a keyboard is plugged into USB? | 00:11 |
| veryape | exit | 00:11 |
| veryape | ls | 00:11 |
| veryape | oops, sorry :/ | 00:12 |

| aliendude5300 | sigh... after having a broken install, i wiped my hdd (backing up /home) and reinstalled Ubuntu 13.04. GRUB is still not working :( | 00:12 |
| cristina | micahcowan, so on kopete works webcam install or not? | 00:12 |
| aliendude5300 | I just get a flashing underscore now | 00:12 |
| micahcowan | cristina, I don't know much about kopete, or really about webcam. I think the only cam-related thing I've installed is "cheese" (takes a picture of you ;) ) | 00:13 |
| cristina | dok jokes | 00:13 |
| brainwash | Schrodinger`Cat: the linux-image-extra package has been merged back into linux-image , so now we have only 1 file like before | 00:13 |
| Schrodinger`Cat | brainwash: ok thanks :) | 00:14 |
| Schrodinger`Cat | brainwash: linux-image-extra is the proprietary stuff, right ? | 00:14 |
| micahcowan | I think proprietary stuff is mostly individual other module packages? | 00:15 |
| AndChat15 | Say up | 00:15 |
| cristina | what docky do? micahcowan | 00:15 |
| micahcowan | Don't know. Does it have a description under Synaptic? | 00:15 |
| micahcowan | Really, the Synaptic descriptions, plus Google, are the best ways to find out (if it has an unfortunately ambiguous name, you might want to add "Ubuntu" in the google searches) | 00:16 |
| micahcowan | There are some tens of thousands of packages, I mostly just know about the ones I use :) | 00:16 |
| brainwash | Schrodinger`Cat: it did contain less common driver modules i think | 00:16 |
| cristina | ok | 00:17 |
| AndChat15 | Ubuntu is worse than windows | 00:17 |
| cristina | yes and you are like a frog | 00:17 |
| aliendude5300 | sigh... I have no idea how to fix my system :( I should have stayed with Ubuntu 12.10, but 13.04 was faster and shinier :/ | 00:17 |
| Schrodinger`Cat | AndChat15: please stop you craps in private message, thanks | 00:17 |
| Schrodinger`Cat | brainwash: thanks | 00:17 |
| levolent | hi guys | 00:18 |
| levolent | can anyone hear me ?? | 00:18 |
| micahcowan | Schrodinger`Cat, I'm thinking it's a harassbot, dunno if there's anyone listening. | 00:18 |
| micahcowan | levolent, read you | 00:18 |
| levolent | nice | 00:18 |
| aliendude5300 | Also, AndChat15 is a troll. | 00:19 |
| levolent | I was having connectivity issues earlier | 00:19 |
| AndChat15 | levolent: hello | 00:19 |
| micahcowan | Someone have ops to ban *@247.sub-174-227-64.myvzw.com (AndChat) ? :/ | 00:19 |
| levolent | ok question. is there a good data recovery software for linux that is free or has trial and online download? | 00:19 |
| levolent | must work on NTFS and possibly FAT32 | 00:19 |
| semitones | how can I make init.d run something? | 00:19 |
| micahcowan | semitones, hm, that's a somewhat complex question. Also, in Ubuntu, it's encouraged to use upstart (/etc/init) rather than ssvinit-style scripts (/etc/init.d) | 00:20 |
| aliendude5300 | I would really appreciate it if someone could help me fix my Ubuntu install. I can't use my desktop at all now, and I've been working on this for hours. | 00:20 |
| Vivekananda | so guys no way to recover then ? | 00:20 |
| micahcowan | But the Ubuntu guides at help.ubuntu.com (I think?) have information on both. | 00:20 |
| levolent | AndChat15 michahcowan sorry to ask for general linux software advice... i know this probably isn't the best place to ask | 00:20 |
| micahcowan | Or maybe it's on the wiki. Proabably both. | 00:20 |
| AndChat15 | Everything just works in windows | 00:20 |
| levolent | maybe i should try #linux? | 00:20 |
| Vivekananda | shoot why do I alwaysuse the shift delete :( | 00:20 |
| micahcowan | levolent, nothing at all wrong with general linux software advice | 00:21 |
| Vivekananda | woe to the habit. any advise on recovering is very much waited upon | 00:21 |
| micahcowan | levolent, and AndChat15 is a troll (possibly bot) | 00:21 |
| semitones | micahcowan: ok, I don't really know the difference. Basically, I just want the system to start redshift before I see the login screen. | 00:21 |
| levolent | ok good | 00:21 |
| levolent | how do i mute him nasty npm | 00:21 |
| micahcowan | semitones, for quick-and-dirty, you probably just want to add it to /etc/rc.local | 00:21 |
| micahcowan | Making sure that it spawns off, and doesn't block until the program exits (add & if necessary) | 00:21 |
| micahcowan | levolent, depends on your client. See if "/help ignore" gives you information on your client. | 00:22 |
| levolent | ok #linux requires registration and I'm not sober enough for that . | 00:22 |
| levolent | so thats good I can ask software advice here :) | 00:22 |
| micahcowan | levolent, I used /ignore *!*@247.sub-174-227-64.myvzw.com ALL | 00:23 |

| levolent | ill enter both commands :) | 00:24 |

| levolent | anyways | 00:24 |
| levolent | ok question. is there a good data recovery software for linux that is free or has trial and online download? | 00:25 |
| Vivekananda | Hello anyone responding to my question. I have not written much on the disk except for scalpel install so please advise on whaat to do ? | 00:25 |
| levolent | must work on NTFS and possibly FAT32 | 00:25 |
| Vivekananda | if there is nothing then I would like to begin working again on the stuff | 00:25 |
| micahcowan | aliendude5300, to be honest, your problem sounds difficult and baffling. You've just done a normal install, wiping the whole HD, and you end up without a working Grub? :( | 00:26 |
| levolent | also, does ubuntu by default detect NTFS disc? and where would I go for verbose data on that usb connection? | 00:26 |
| levolent | 12.10 | 00:26 |
| micahcowan | aliendude5300, I've never had that happen. Not like that, anyway. I've had Windows kill my Grub, and other things like that, but a reinstall always fixed it. | 00:26 |
| aliendude5300 | micahcowan, yes. I have spent hours working on this. I've been on IRC all day, and all I want is a working system :( | 00:26 |
| chaotix | hello... should i get ubuntu 13.10? why or why not | 00:26 |
| chaotix | i meant 13.04 | 00:26 |
| micahcowan | levolent, it should detect NTFS discs, I think | 00:27 |
| levolent | is there another good channel for ubunt or linux questions that doesn't require registration? | 00:27 |
| aliendude5300 | I have Secure Boot disabled since people will probably bring that up | 00:27 |
| levolent | whats the best program to get data on the connection and disc | 00:27 |
| macwolf74 | chaotix, If you want the latest and greatest or if something does not work right currently then maybe you should | 00:27 |
| macwolf74 | however you will have to upgrade to 13.10 in the next 9 months to stay supported | 00:27 |
| micahcowan | chaotix, it might be right for you, or you might prefer to get the last long-term support version (which was 12.04 I believe) | 00:28 |
| levolent | i dont know if you guys have smelled gucci intense but omfg... | 00:28 |
| micahcowan | If you like to have the latest bleeding edge, then getting the latest release can be a good idea. | 00:28 |
| tehsmythe | Does anyone here know if ubuntu 13.04 will know to install grub on the ssd part of my hybrid drive or will I have to manually manage the partitions to get this to happen? I want to use the SSD for the OS and the HDD for the storage | 00:28 |

| chaotix | how do i report someone for being a troll? | 00:29 |
| micahcowan | 12.04 will be supported until a year after 14.04 comes out, I believe, so if you like to just install stuff and leave it alone without constantly upgrading a couple times a year, LTS can be a good choice. | 00:29 |
| levolent | andchat broke my filter :( | 00:29 |

| chaotix | ok | 00:29 |
| micahcowan | levolent, mine too. Thought I'd banned that nick. Probably banned the username instead | 00:29 |
| chaotix | im leaving anyways | 00:29 |
| levolent | can someone please help or direct me I've been here awhile | 00:29 |
| micahcowan | chaotix, no need to remain nameless, AndChat's bugging everyone | 00:29 |
| macwolf74 | hope you have fun with ubuntu | 00:29 |

| micahcowan | levolent, yes, it'll detect the NTFS disc (thought I answered that already) | 00:31 |
| macwolf74 | by NTFS disc if you mean partition then it usually does yes | 00:31 |
| aliendude5300 | levolent, ubuntu detects and can read/write to NTFS by default | 00:31 |

| levolent | ok did someone ever ansewr me? I scrolled up but dont see red text | 00:41 |
| micahcowan | I've only used the GUI "Make Startup Disk" thingy to do the USB thing | 00:42 |
| helo | i prefer clean installs, but if the iso does not will it, so be it! | 00:42 |
| wilee-nilee | helo, You know the boot menu outside the bios? | 00:42 |
| adreno | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPGKDmuAIKQ&list=PL8BAFE3208F6CD872 | 00:42 |
| helo | micahcowan: i think it "used to" ;) | 00:42 |
| helo | dunno, my bios is kind of sketchy when it comes to upgrades | 00:42 |
| levolent | I am a sad panda right now :( | 00:42 |
| doghead | I have swamp land to sell | 00:42 |
| helo | err "when it comes to usb booting" | 00:42 |
| micahcowan | gotcha | 00:42 |
| micahcowan | levolent, I don't know much about getting data on USB connections. Not sure what level of data you're wanting, though. | 00:43 |
| levolent | is there a freenode or other irc channel for non-emergency firstaid? | 00:43 |
| macwolf74 | answered you on the disks question levolent? the command is gnome-disks for the GUI tool | 00:43 |
| wilee-nilee | helo, outside the bios | 00:43 |
| macwolf74 | <helo> #defocus | 00:43 |
| n47781 | how can I access an external USB harddisk? alternatively, any way to access a Windows' shared folder to drag over ( / copy & paste) files from that? | 00:43 |
| micahcowan | levolent, I mean, dmesg will tell you what got connected to your computer, if that's the sort of thing you need | 00:43 |
| helo | #defocus is the freenode lobby, afaik | 00:43 |
| harris | how do i turn off the power saving like the file my computer keeps poping and thats what i had to do before | 00:43 |
| aliendude5300 | yes! It booted this time! Success! :D 4 hours of work fixing my Ubuntu paid off! I had to manually create a 100MB reserved bios boot area on my ssd for it to boot! :) | 00:44 |
| levolent | is there a good search engine for irc chat of all network? google seems lacking imo | 00:44 |
| helo | servers don't seem overwhelmed, btw... pulling 1MB/s | 00:44 |
| * helo frowns as it drops to 400KB/s | 00:44 | |
| macwolf74 | what IRC client are you using levolent? | 00:45 |
| levolent | you can't put a bandaid in your mouth right? so what if you bite the everloving @$% out of your lip | 00:45 |
| levolent | xchat | 00:45 |
| helo | levolent: freenode is all you need if you're sticking to linuxland... netsplit.de is a good index | 00:45 |
| levolent | macwolf74 xchat | 00:45 |
| levolent | not sticking to linuxland | 00:45 |
| macwolf74 | ah | 00:45 |
| levolent | its about non-emergency first aid question | 00:45 |
| macwolf74 | server > list of channels can give you a list of channels | 00:46 |
| harris | wilee-nilee, | 00:46 |
| macwolf74 | also we keep saying #defocus levolent | 00:46 |
| harris | you helped me with it | 00:46 |
| macwolf74 | lol | 00:46 |
| levolent | ty macwolf74 | 00:46 |
| levolent | were you born in 74 btw? | 00:46 |
| macwolf74 | nah | 00:46 |
| macwolf74 | lol | 00:46 |
| levolent | i bet you get asked that all the time | 00:46 |
| levolent | how do i switch channel without mouse in xchat? | 00:47 |
| levolent | ctrl+tab !equivalen | 00:47 |
| levolent | ctrl+tab !equivalent | 00:47 |
| harris | /join channel | 00:47 |
| levolent | =\ | 00:47 |
| levolent | did that alredy | 00:47 |
| macwolf74 | I do | 00:47 |
| clfs | /join ubuntu-cn | 00:48 |
| levolent | harris /join #ubuntu when im already in it from another channel doesn't switch focus =\ | 00:48 |
| levolent | does anyone have questions? | 00:49 |
| aliendude5300 | ok, Ubuntu 13.04 is now running on my system, but it keeps freezing and lagging to the point where I have to reboot it manually. I'm getting errors from noveau saying GPU lockup - switching to software fbcon | 00:49 |
| aliendude5300 | and then a black screen | 00:49 |
| harris | levolent, yes | 00:50 |
| levolent | harris yes what ... how do switch channel with keyboard? xchat | 00:51 |

| levolent | how do switch channel with keyboard? xchat | 00:53 |
| levolent | CTRL+TAB equivalent | 00:53 |
| micahcowan | levolent, I was looking under Settings->Advanced->Keyboard Shortcuts | 00:53 |
| micahcowan | but there doesn't seem to be such a thing | 00:53 |
| goonface | levolent: usw | 00:53 |
| micahcowan | There doesn't even seem to be a command to assign to a keystroke for such a thing :/ | 00:54 |
| goonface | levolent: hey | 00:54 |
| micahcowan | aliendude5300, crap, I dunno, but sounds like maybe it's choosing bad graphics drivers for your Xorg or something... | 00:54 |
| goonface | Use windows | 00:55 |
| micahcowan | alien2050, might be able to force it to use a more "safe-mode" style one, but it's been ages since I've had to muck with Xorg, and it was all manual config back then, so I'd be little help now. | 00:55 |
| aliendude5300 | Sigh... I'm hating 13.04 already. Should have stayed with 12.10... at least it worked | 00:56 |
| micahcowan | So, you had zero problems with 12.10? | 00:56 |
| goonface | Ubuntu craptastic | 00:56 |
| levolent | goonface usw? | 00:56 |
| micahcowan | You might consider installing 12.10, and possibly doing the upgrade from there (or not) | 00:56 |
| helo | aliendude5300: when i'm having graphics issues that lead to an unusable system, i press "e" in grub, remove "quiet", change "splash" to "nosplash", and add "single" | 00:56 |
| helo | then it will boot to a root prompt that you can use to unsilly things | 00:57 |
| helo | just had to do that when my kernel was upgraded since i'm using the binary amd drivers | 00:57 |
| goonface | aliendude5300: dont listen to these nerds. Telk me whats wrong | 00:57 |
| aliendude5300 | my system is freezing and locking up with noveau errors after a few seconds after booting | 00:58 |
| helo | well, if you're able to boot, you don't need single mode | 00:58 |
| helo | sorry, wasn't reading | 00:59 |
| goonface | aliendude5300: are u using 32 or 64 bit | 00:59 |
| aliendude5300 | I'm getting errors from noveau saying GPU lockup - switching to software fbcon followed by a blank screen. I then have to do a hard reboot | 00:59 |
| aliendude5300 | 64-bit | 00:59 |
| helo | you could try fglrx, or try installing the amd drivers from their website | 00:59 |
| helo | but that causes problems of its own | 00:59 |
| goonface | aliendude5300: you have nvidia | 00:59 |
| aliendude5300 | fglrx is ati isn't it? I have a geforce card in my desktop | 01:00 |
| helo | oh geforce 0_o | 01:00 |
| micahcowan | aliendude5300, but are you still able to get a basic console on that blank screen, by pressing Ctrl-Alt-F1? | 01:00 |
| aliendude5300 | goonface: yes. it's a geforce gtx 580 | 01:00 |
| * helo realizes he should stop | 01:00 | |
| micahcowan | You'll need that much at least to be able to potentially fix X | 01:00 |
| aliendude5300 | micahcowan: I can before it freezes up, or if i boot into recovery mode | 01:00 |
| aliendude5300 | after it freezes up, i can't do much except reboot | 01:00 |
| goonface | aliendude5300: are you using live disk or installed | 01:01 |
| aliendude5300 | goonface: installed | 01:01 |
| semitones | micahcowan: I tested running the rc.local on its own, and it does what I want and exits. Is it good to go now? | 01:01 |
| goonface | aliendude5300: at grub do you know how to set NOMODESET | 01:02 |
| micahcowan | Seems to be :) | 01:02 |
| Anti-Sleep | Hello. | 01:02 |
| micahcowan | Just remember what you added there, in case you ever reinstall and have to remember :) | 01:03 |
| micahcowan | hi anti | 01:03 |
| semitones | micahcowan: great -- I just wanted to make sure there's not something else I need to do | 01:03 |
| Anti-Sleep | Greetings. | 01:03 |
| semitones | micahcowan: there should be some kind of registry that logs changes users make to anything outside of /home | 01:03 |
| aliendude5300 | goonface: I could figure that out. don't you just edit the boot command or something? not sure where to put nomodeset though | 01:03 |
| goonface | aliendude5300: boot to grub and there is a Function key to set options | 01:05 |
| levolent | sup guys? | 01:05 |
| goonface | aliendude5300: i think its F6 then select NOMODESET | 01:06 |
| aliendude5300 | there are no function keys listed on the grub screen, and pressing f6 does nothing | 01:07 |
| aliendude5300 | i can get to recovery mode if that would be helpful | 01:07 |
| micahcowan | semitones, well, in the meantime, I keep my /etc as a git repository, so I have a history of changes (on my VPS, not my main desktop; I don't have to change /etc too often on my desktop) | 01:07 |
| levolent | how do you force a refresh of disks in gnome-disks? | 01:08 |
| wilee-nilee | aliendude5300, you need nomodeset at the grub menu once? | 01:08 |
| semitones | micahcowan: cool, i'll remember that | 01:08 |
| micahcowan | dunno, I'm using xfce4, not gnome | 01:08 |
| Cyberai | I upgraded to 13.04 recently and I cannot set a desktop wallpaper in the Ubuntu Desktop. If I switch to Gnome3 it works fine. Can anyone help? | 01:08 |
| aliendude5300 | i'm not really sure what nomodeset does... noveau is throwing up errors, and my system is crashing :/ | 01:09 |
| aliendude5300 | goonface told me to set nomodeset in GRUB so I'm going to try that | 01:09 |
| wilee-nilee | !nomodeset | check the link. | 01:09 |
| ubottu | check the link.: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 01:09 |

| betrayd | HerrKlemmy: are your other 2 monitors set | 01:14 |
| HerrKlemmy | betrayd: I have two monitors working, one over VGA the other over an DVI to VGA adapter. | 01:15 |
| levolent | why is goonface acting normal in here trying to be helpful? he is the andchat troll | 01:15 |
| goonface | aliendude5300: leave space and type NOMODESET then cntrl-x | 01:15 |
| betrayd | HerrKlemmy: using what grafix card, which driver | 01:15 |
| aliendude5300 | alright, I'm at a desktop now. (solid state drive for the win) | 01:16 |
| aliendude5300 | doesn't seem to be freezing yet | 01:16 |
| aliendude5300 | no, it seems to be working. ] | 01:16 |
| HerrKlemmy | betrayd: A ATI RV516 XT Radeon X1600 Series with the drivers installed with the OS-installation | 01:17 |
| HerrKlemmy | betrayd: no other works for me... | 01:17 |
| goonface | aliendude5300: you have to google how to make it permanent in GRUB. | 01:17 |
| aliendude5300 | would it be a good idea to install the nvidia drivers since it seems to be a driver issue? | 01:18 |
| thorby | Hi | 01:19 |
| betrayd | HerrKlemmy: i am going out on a limb here, is there an xorg.conf for your setuyp in /etc/X11 | 01:19 |
| HerrKlemmy | nope | 01:20 |
| HerrKlemmy | betrayd: nope | 01:20 |
| aliendude5300 | thanks for helping me :) I think I'm going to make nomodeset permanent and try to get the proprietary drivers up and running so I can use the full capabilities of my GPU | 01:20 |
| chrisdone | anybody here got ubuntu to work in dual boot on the retina macbook pro? whatever i seem to try, refit/refind,grub, it always seems to say "missing operating system" when trying to boot linux | 01:20 |
| goonface | aliendude5300: never tried Ubuntu. It seems you already have Nvidia installed. In terminal type NVIDIA-SETTINGS | 01:20 |
| mibitzi | does skype work with any nvidia driver on amd64? | 01:20 |
| aliendude5300 | nvidia-settings: command not found | 01:21 |
| chrisdone | i'm gonna have to send it back to apple if i can't get ubuntu to even boot =/ | 01:22 |
| betrayd | HerrKlemmy: make sure your system allows the use of both simultaneously, i've known systems that allowd a graphics card to handle displays but disable onboard, so doublecheck the BIOS settings | 01:22 |
| betrayd | HerrKlemmy: cycle/pageup/down thru the choices | 01:23 |
| goonface | aliendude5300: ubuntu i think has easy way to install nvidia. When it installs Nvidia it should fix the NOMODESET issue. | 01:23 |
| chrisdone | pfft, i'm gonna try installing ubuntu OVER os x. if it fails to boot then, i'll have to send it back and get a refund | 01:24 |
| HerrKlemmy | betrayd: ok, thx, thaths a helpful information - I'll do so, but now i have to go to sleep - thx for your help | 01:24 |
| aliendude5300 | goonface: alright, thanks. I'll try to find a way to install nvidia in ubuntu. I think I should be able to do that with a simple apt-get command now that I have my system up and running | 01:24 |
| betrayd | gnite HerrKlemmy font awnt you to waste your time | 01:24 |
| aliendude5300 | does anyone know the name of the proprietary nvidia driver package? | 01:24 |
| betrayd | don't want | 01:24 |
| betrayd | chrisdone: better to troubleshoot that 'no OS found' | 01:25 |
| HerrKlemmy | betrayd: hopefully there is somebody online, who can help me, when i got my information... but my bed cries for me :) | 01:25 |
| betrayd | thats ok HerrKlemmy everything starts with BIOS beingOK with it | 01:26 |
| aliendude5300 | after a quick google search, i'm going to install nvidia-current. that should work | 01:26 |
| UserAttack | Running Xubuntu.. How come my battery display is empty until I plug in then out? | 01:26 |
| goonface | aliendude5300: try system+settings look for hardware drivers | 01:26 |
| goonface | aliendude5300: i think ubuntu idiot prof | 01:27 |
| chrisdone | betrayd: well the OS is on there. the ubuntu installer created the partition and a swap. googling the error message doesn't give me anything i understand | 01:28 |
| betrayd | installed from a stick? | 01:28 |
| chrisdone | yeah | 01:28 |
| betrayd | chrisdone: ^ | 01:28 |
| goonface | Proofed it. System-settings should be hardware driverd | 01:28 |
| betrayd | make sure the ctick isnt in there when you boot | 01:28 |
| betrayd | stick* chrisdone ^ | 01:28 |
| chrisdone | it's not | 01:28 |
| betrayd | chrisdone: you had the grub install to the hdd, what awas the name fo the drive | 01:29 |
| chrisdone | betrayd: swap was /dev/sda5 and the ext4 was /dev/sda6 | 01:30 |
| betrayd | chrisdone: and you designated what for grub destination? | 01:30 |
| goonface | aliendude5300: what version of Ubuntu you using | 01:31 |
| aliendude5300 | 13.04 | 01:31 |
| betrayd | chrisdone: usually people say sda1 when grub can only accept sda | 01:31 |
| chrisdone | betrayd: i don't know what that means. the ubuntu installer didn't ask me about grub destination | 01:31 |
| betrayd | well thats usually the last step | 01:31 |
| chrisdone | betrayd: how do i find out that? | 01:31 |
| chrisdone | hmm yeah | 01:31 |
| chrisdone | in the guides they all say "and by the way tell it to install grub for you" | 01:32 |
| chrisdone | except this ubuntu 13.04 just says "install finished" and asks me to reboot | 01:32 |
| betrayd | chrisdone: not that you skipped the part, it wasn't even offered? | 01:32 |
| === qos|away is now known as qos | ||
| chrisdone | i looked for it, it's supposed to be an "advanced" button before the final step, but nothing appeared | 01:33 |
| betrayd | hmmm, this is a mac, so i can't be 100% sure | 01:33 |
| chrisdone | i even did the custom way so i have to choose the partitions and such | 01:33 |
| betrayd | chrisdone: if you go through the install is there a way for you to remain online | 01:34 |
| chrisdone | yeah i have two macbooks. the macbookpro 5,5 works perfectly with ubuntu, i'm using that now to talk to you | 01:34 |
| chrisdone | i have the installer open presently on the retina | 01:34 |
| chrisdone | "try ubuntu" or "install ubuntu", it asks | 01:34 |
| betrayd | but before you jump into that, maybe a grub updatre might set things rightr | 01:35 |
| aliendude5300 | goonface: Installing the nvidia-current package that I found via a Google search seems to have worked. After rebooting, my system isn't crashing. :) | 01:35 |
| droffel | Does anyone know of something I could install to allow for quick-reply to messages in Empathy within the xMessage notification box? | 01:35 |
| goonface | aliendude5300: 12.10 had a problem installing Nvidia. Kernel build was not installed. Bug never fixed | 01:35 |
| chrisdone | betrayd: so i did attempt a grub-update based on some instructions to chroot to the /dev/sda6 partition with mounts, but it seemed to effect no change | 01:35 |
| chrisdone | betrayd: is that what you mean? | 01:35 |
| betrayd | chrisdone: yeah | 01:36 |
| chrisdone | if i open gparted, how do i know that grub is setup properly? | 01:36 |
| Morph4me | chrisdone :black screen ? for try or install ubuntu ? | 01:36 |
| betrayd | on a mac | 01:36 |
| goonface | aliendude5300: okay. | 01:36 |
| betrayd | chrisdone: give Morph4me the info | 01:36 |
| betrayd | 'no os' etc | 01:37 |
| === Anti-Sleep is now known as Rand0m | ||
| === Rand0m is now known as RaNd0m | ||
| chrisdone | Morph4me: try/install ubuntu works fine, the GUI opens. i run through the installer and it says 'finished' and i reboot, but then when i choose to run it with the macbook pro bootloader, it says 'Missing operating system' | 01:37 |
| dank101 | how laggy is tf2 on 13.04 without graphics drivers | 01:37 |
| === RaNd0m is now known as RAnd0m | ||
| Morph4me | chrisdone: but the installer is black screen and not pruple at the begining right? | 01:38 |
| chrisdone | Morph4me: i mean, the mbp gives me a choice between 'os x/os x backup/windows', but i have no windows, it calls linux windows. i also tried efit/efind which did the same thing | 01:39 |
| dank101 | anyone? | 01:39 |
| chrisdone | Morph4me: the installer shows the normal ubuntu desktop background with the dialog box... what do you mean black or purple? | 01:39 |
| betrayd | chrisdone: he's referring to a different problem i think | 01:40 |
| goonface | dank101: slow | 01:40 |
| betrayd | reported | 01:40 |
| Morph4me | where it says "try or install" that screen purple or black ? | 01:40 |
| dank101 | goonface, FUUUUUUUU | 01:40 |
| chrisdone | Morph4me: neither | 01:40 |
| betrayd | chrisdone: gparted won't show you where grub is, it can show you current partitions and put a 'bootable' flag | 01:41 |
| Arrarita | Hello, is there a specific topic here or can I describe my problem here? | 01:41 |
| goonface | dank101: generic drivers are slow. | 01:41 |
| chrisdone | betrayd: what makes the boot system decide whether an OS is "missing" or not? the bootable flag? | 01:42 |
| dank101 | goonface, will installing it from the Ubuntu repos break unity/OpenGL | 01:42 |
| betrayd | chrisdone: afaik, the bootable flag is only recognized by linux... | 01:43 |

| Arrarita | would the keyboard and mouse cause my screen to constantly freeze and fade in and out? | 01:50 |
| caleb__ | would someone atleast point me in the right direction for help | 01:50 |
| tarvid | They could stream in interrupts | 01:50 |
| Arrarita | what if I use the USB ports | 01:51 |
| chrisdone | Morph4me: i saw other guides like it -- it says to copy /boot/vmlinuz* from the live cd. but such a file doesn't exist in my /boot | 01:51 |
| chrisdone | Morph4me: neither does the /boot/initrd* | 01:51 |
| tarvid | caleb__, postfix wouldn't do that by itself, you are hacked | 01:51 |
| aliendude5300 | Hey, so I just noticed that the Ubuntu installer didn't notice my Windows 8 partition, and there is no entry in the GRUB menu despite it existing on my disk and me being able to access the files. How can I make it show up in GRUB so that I can boot to Windows 8? | 01:51 |
| Morph4me | k | 01:52 |
| Gumby` | caleb__: first start to check if you are an open relay | 01:52 |
| betrayd | chrisdone: be careful what the dates are on those helpful guides | 01:52 |
| Gumby` | tarvid: jumping to "hacked" is quite an aggressive statement. he may simply be an open relay | 01:52 |
| tarvid | Good point Gumby` but postfix is not open by default | 01:52 |
| Gumby` | tarvid: it doesnt send spam by default (as you pointed out) either ;) | 01:52 |
| chrisdone | Morph4me: maybe it means i should mount the / on the resulting ext4 ubuntu system and take the files from there? i'll re-install again and see if they're there | 01:53 |
| aliendude5300 | Running Ubuntu 13.04 on a dual-boot installation with a Windows 8 partition present, by the way. | 01:53 |
| tarvid | If he is sending spam he should shut down postfix and inspect the queue | 01:53 |
| Gumby` | caleb__: also, make sure it isnt your mail client or pc it resides on. if something within your allowed relay has a virus it could be that also | 01:54 |
| Gumby` | tarvid: inded he should | 01:54 |
| === mimi is now known as Guest14591 | ||
| Gumby` | I'd help more but I am far from a postfix guru | 01:55 |
| uroyanme | e u. | 01:55 |
| Morph4me | chrisdone: Macs don't make it easy do they ? and betrayed, good point ...noted ;) | 01:56 |
| Gumby` | although I must say, for someone who desperately needs help, it seems odd that they'd ask a Q and then not pay attention for responses | 01:56 |
| tophalf01 | What do you guys think about KDE? | 01:58 |
| Arrarita | Responses? | 01:58 |
| === mikestewart is now known as ms|afk | ||
| tophalf01 | I use GNOME right now, but I think I might switch. | 01:58 |
| LinDol | why? | 01:59 |
| LinDol | what did you have problem? :) | 02:00 |
| wdonkey | anyone feel like helping me out with some cairo-dock setting problem ? | 02:01 |
| wdonkey | i know its of a deconcerting futility when compared to the war raging in the world or the hunger, but if anyone knowledgeable enough has a minute or two to spare.. | 02:02 |
| Arrarita | Would my keyboard and mouse cause my computer to constantly freeze and scroll uncontrollably? | 02:02 |
| caleb__ | I should shut down postfix and inspect the queu? | 02:02 |
| caleb__ | What am I looking for? I am looking at the logs and they are humming | 02:03 |
| caleb__ | this is regarding the email spam issue | 02:03 |
| hachre | Arrarita: no | 02:03 |
| dfrey | I'm having problems with audio since "upgrading" to 13.04. I still see my audio devices in lspci, but when I click "sound settings" under the volume icon, only one output is available (should be 2) and on the one output, there is only a single "profile" listed in the drop-down menu (there should be many) | 02:03 |
| tarvid | caleb__, service postfix stop | 02:04 |
| hachre | Arrarita: do you have nvidia graphics? | 02:04 |
| Arrarita | I think so | 02:04 |
| hachre | Arrarita: did you install the nvidia binary driver? | 02:04 |
| Arrarita | No I did not. I have no clue as to what that is or that I needed to do that. | 02:04 |
| dfrey | Furthermore, running alsamixer now says "cannot open mixer: No such file or directory" | 02:05 |
| hachre | Arrarita: it depends on what card you have specifically, but that symptom you have is something I have as well with the default driver | 02:05 |
| caleb__ | travid is there anyway we can get on a another channel | 02:05 |
| wdonkey | dfrey: do you have sound ? | 02:05 |
| hachre | Arrarita: go into the unity menu and type software, then select software & updates | 02:05 |
| Arrarita | ok, so how do I install it? | 02:05 |
| caleb__ | I really want this to get fixed. the mail log exceeds around 2 gig every day | 02:05 |
| hachre | Arrarita: on the last tab of the window that comes up you have a few choices for alternative graphics drivers | 02:05 |
| === fred_ is now known as Guest19682 | ||
| tarvid | caleb__, you can make a channel and invite me | 02:06 |
| hachre | Arrarita: I recommend nvidia-313-updates - it should be in that list | 02:06 |
| Arrarita | ok I am confused, this is new to me. | 02:06 |
| Arrarita | I need to get to the Unity menu | 02:06 |
| Arrarita | let me write this down | 02:06 |
| hachre | Arrarita: arent you next to that computer? | 02:06 |
| Arrarita | yes I am | 02:07 |
| hachre | Arrarita: well so just do it ;D | 02:07 |
| Arrarita | easy for you | 02:07 |
| caleb__ | I have no idea how. I havn't been on IRC since I was 15 lol do you have skype? | 02:07 |
| aliendude5300 | anyone have any luck getting skype to work at all in Ubunut 13.04? | 02:07 |
| aliendude5300 | Ubuntu* | 02:07 |
| dfrey | wdonkey: Only through the "Digital Stereo (IEC958) Output" listed in sound settings. It's an optical cable that goes from my soundcard to my receiver. This soundcard used to show many output options and I can no longer see the HDMI audio option of my video card | 02:08 |
| Arrarita | I don't know what the Unity menu is | 02:08 |
| caleb__ | If you don't have skype I am sure I can figure it out | 02:08 |
| tarvid | caleb__, gmail chat tarvid@ls.net | 02:08 |
| hachre | Arrarita: the first button on that bar on the left | 02:08 |
| Arrarita | ok let me try that | 02:08 |
| hachre | Arrarita: with the ubuntu logo and the swirl | 02:08 |
| dank101 | is unity in 13.04 using Qt? | 02:09 |
| hachre | dank101: as far as I know mostly not | 02:09 |
| hachre | dank101: Qt is coming with unity-next | 02:10 |
| dank101 | hachre, WHY IS IT SO MUCH FASTER? LOL! | 02:10 |
| caleb__ | just sent invite | 02:10 |
| dank101 | it's butter | 02:10 |
| hachre | hehe :) | 02:10 |
| dank101 | it was a ROCK in 12.10 | 02:10 |
| hachre | I guess they made some improvements ;D | 02:10 |
| Arrarita | Thank you for your help and your patience, it's installing now. | 02:11 |
| DaemonicApathy | I have noticed a distinct increase in performance speed after my update from final beta to official release. It's amazing. | 02:11 |
| dank101 | and does nvidia drivers from the settings break unity, like in 12.10, and break OpenGL in all versions | 02:11 |
| aliendude5300 | when i run skype after installing it from skype.com on my 64-bit Ubuntu installation, I get a segmentation fault, and skype closes | 02:11 |
| hachre | Arrarita: np :) | 02:11 |
| DaemonicApathy | aliendude5300: Which version? | 02:11 |
| caleb__ | I sent you an invite and a email. thanks travid | 02:12 |
| DaemonicApathy | Of Ubuntu, that is. 13.04, or earlier? | 02:12 |
| dank101 | anyone? | 02:12 |
| hachre | dank101: no | 02:13 |
| hachre | dank101: if you install the nivida drivers that are in the software & updates menu those are fine | 02:13 |
| dank101 | hache OH MY GOD | 02:13 |
| dank101 | WHAT DID CONONICAL DO TO MAKE 13.04 SO MUCH BETTER? | 02:14 |
| hachre | didnt sleep 6 months | 02:14 |

| FearNotMan | I have a weird problem, and I'm hoping you guys can help me. When I installed, I selected the full disk encryption with LVM option. Everything worked great for a while. Now for some reason when I boot up I am not asked for a key to decrypt the encrypted portion, but rather Gnome tries to start up and then displays the screen in the picture on this question: | 02:15 |
| hachre | FearNotMan: link missing | 02:16 |
| Arrarita | OK, it has finishing installing. I hope this works. Thank you again and have a good night. | 02:16 |

| hachre | FearNotMan: you'll have to wait and see... I don't sadly | 02:20 |
| wilee-nilee | FearNotMan, You are missing grub boot files and a fstab in your install. | 02:20 |
| FearNotMan | hachre: No problem. Thanks for you help! | 02:20 |
| FearNotMan | wilee-nilee: Any idea how it happened, or how to fix it? | 02:21 |
| Biafra | Okay, turns out the issue with the clean install crashing was due to checking the box to install the Fluendo codecs | 02:22 |
| Biafra | that's odd | 02:22 |
| wilee-nilee | FearNotMan, Not sure the cause, personally I would chroot to the install from a live media and purge and reinstall grub, the bootrepair tool might have a purge and reinstall option but I never use it so don't know. | 02:22 |
| alien2050 | anyone knows how to rescale an application in dual screen? Its kinda stuck in the middle of the two displays and cannot be expanded for some reason... I want the app to be 3000x1080 instead of 1900x1080.... all my windows (gnome) have this behavior | 02:24 |
| betrayd | the app might think 1900x1080 is the max | 02:24 |
| betrayd | alien2050: not twinview on nvidia? | 02:25 |
| alien2050 | yes, twinview on nvidia | 02:26 |
| _mote_ | !version | 02:26 |

| Freel0ader | hi friends! | 02:26 |
| Freel0ader | https://launchpad.net/gvoice-notifier | 02:26 |
| Freel0ader | any way to use that with gnome-shell, so i can use with fedora? | 02:26 |
| dank101 | ask on #fedora | 02:27 |
| alien2050 | it kind of work if I put the window in the middle of the two screens and then resize it, BUT its kinda weird behavior sometimes when resizing it snaps back to only one monitor | 02:27 |
| Freel0ader | no | 02:27 |
| Freel0ader | it's an ubuntu program | 02:27 |
| dank101 | Freel0ader, IT WORKS MULTI-LINUX | 02:27 |
| betrayd | alien2050: are you able to get to nvidia X server settings | 02:27 |
| Freel0ader | dank101, IM WONDERING IF YOU CAN USE IT WITH GNOME-SHELL | 02:28 |
| dank101 | Freel0ader: YES! | 02:28 |
| alien2050 | I think there's some application that manages the screen that manages that, but I can't find it... | 02:28 |
| alien2050 | betrayd: yes I'm in nvidia-settings | 02:28 |
| dank101 | Freel0ader, now treat people like people | 02:28 |
| alien2050 | betrayd: you think the option in there somewhere? | 02:28 |
| dank101 | i gave honest advice and you yelled at me | 02:28 |
| betrayd | alien2050: save your current xorg.conf | 02:29 |
| Freel0ader | dank101, you yelled at me, bro | 02:29 |
| dank101 | Freel0ader, so it popped out | 02:29 |
| betrayd | alien2050: you might have to disable twinview and go for BigDesktop | 02:29 |
| Freel0ader | i just wish i could find a gnome version of this program | 02:29 |

| dank101 | Freel0ader, the notifactions on unity are gnome are = | 02:30 |
| Freel0ader | oh | 02:30 |
| Freel0ader | i mean, would it appear as a shell applet? | 02:30 |
| alien2050 | betrayd: I see... but it looks like it's another application that manages the windows that does that, for example when I resize I see the window shade with a different color | 02:30 |
| dank101 | yes | 02:30 |
| Freel0ader | WELL THEN | 02:30 |
| Freel0ader | i stand CORRECTED | 02:30 |
| dank101 | no wonder 90% of gnome apps are on ubuntu | 02:30 |
| dank101 | i looked up system in unity | 02:31 |
| Freel0ader | let's see if i can even compile it | 02:31 |
| dank101 | i saw a windows box | 02:31 |
| dank101 | i am offended | 02:31 |
| Freel0ader | dank101, hugs? | 02:32 |
| FearNotMan | wilee-nilee: I tried reinstalling grub using the boot-repair tool, but it made no difference. I found the fstab in the /etc but that is part of the encrypted partition, so I would think the problem must be in /boot somewhere since that is the only thing that is unencrypted at startup time | 02:32 |
| dank101 | Freel0ader, i need some | 02:32 |
| FearNotMan | wilee-nilee: I am running a Live CD with the disk mounted and unencrypted | 02:33 |
| Arrarita | Hello again, I am still having the problem with my screen freezing and pages scrolling. Is there something else I can do? | 02:33 |
| betrayd | alien2050: some things you might be able to run in 'advanced mode' in nvidia X server settings | 02:33 |
| dank101 | Freel0ader, i forgot to mention, it will compile as a deb | 02:33 |
| Freel0ader | bzr branch lp:gvoice-notifier doing this now | 02:33 |
| wilee-nilee | FearNotMan, Could be, I have not seen if there grub files are not detectable, however you are missing grub files. | 02:33 |
| dank101 | use alien to covert it to a RPM | 02:33 |
| hachre | Arrarita: out of ideas then, sorry | 02:34 |
| Freel0ader | i wonder if development is dead | 02:34 |
| Arrarita | Would another of those drivers work? | 02:34 |
| Freel0ader | how do i compile it after i bzr? | 02:34 |
| hachre | Arrarita: I doubt it | 02:34 |
| Freel0ader | oh, just like svn | 02:34 |
| hachre | Arrarita: if it behaves the same way it wasnt the driver | 02:34 |
| FearNotMan | wilee-nilee: Do you know which grub files are missing? Is that in the report? | 02:34 |
| hachre | Arrarita: is it a laptop? | 02:34 |
| betrayd | Arrarita: keyboard and mouse both USB? | 02:34 |
| Freel0ader | crap! | 02:35 |
| Arrarita | No, my desktop | 02:35 |
| Arrarita | not using USB | 02:35 |
| Arrarita | I hate to give up Ubuntu, but with every update things get worse | 02:35 |
| dank101 | Freel0ader, mind if i make this easier for you | 02:35 |
| Arrarita | and I am not savy enough to figure things out. | 02:36 |
| Freel0ader | yay | 02:36 |
| alien2050 | betrayd: yeah I didn't think of that, but it doesn't change anything for now... even in different mode; BUT I did manage to find that compiz is loaded, so it must be an option in ccsm somewhere | 02:36 |
| Arrarita | I can't do my work | 02:36 |

| Arrarita | Firefox | 02:38 |
| alien2050 | betrayd: I don't see a BigDesktop option | 02:38 |
| hachre | Arrarita: its the accelerated rendering of the browser, so its a graphics issue after all... weird that the driver didnt fix it... | 02:38 |
| wilee-nilee | FearNotMan, the sda5 wont show what is there so it is kinda hard to really tell. | 02:38 |

| alien2050 | betrayd: ATI's Big Desktop is similar to NVIDIA's TwinView under Linux... so I guess bigDesktop on radeon is the equivalent of twinview on nvidia | 02:41 |
| Arrarita | would that be it? | 02:41 |
| heroandtn3 | OerHeks: thanks, I will try | 02:41 |
| hachre | Arrarita: no thats the processor | 02:41 |
| Arrarita | ok, I opened the menu and I typed Nvidia | 02:41 |
| betrayd | alien2050: see what tips there are so that the graphical representation of hte 2 displays can be merged onto 1 spanning desktop | 02:41 |
| hachre | Arrarita: doesnt it finda program called nvidia x server settings? | 02:41 |

| alien2050 | betrayd: just to be clear, I see the two output, I just can't scale an application spanning from the first monitor to the second one, it "glues" in the middle while resizing with a colored shade (which I'm guessing comes from compiz option somewhere) | 02:49 |
| Arrarita | oh ok, sorry | 02:49 |
| auscompgeek | Arrarita, as a general rule of thumb, pasting more than 3 lines in IRC is frowned upon | 02:49 |
| betrayd | alien2050: understood, but the apps all think thats the max | 02:49 |
| Arrarita | I do apologize | 02:49 |
| betrayd | the 'wrong' max | 02:49 |
| Arrarita | This is my first time using this thing. | 02:49 |
| betrayd | nostress Arrarita | 02:49 |
| mmhmm | auscompgeek: who told you that? | 02:49 |
| auscompgeek | mmhmm, it's something I've observed across the years | 02:50 |
| hachre | Arrarita: any luck starting nvidia-settings now? | 02:50 |
| mmhmm | auscompgeek: so you don't have a soure? | 02:50 |
| Arrarita | OK, you said to search for something | 02:50 |
| Arrarita | ok, let me look for that. | 02:50 |
| auscompgeek | mmhmm: not really | 02:50 |
| Arrarita | No, same thing | 02:50 |
| mmhmm | auscompgeek: how many years have you been on irc? | 02:50 |
| hachre | Arrarita: try launching it via the terminal, nvidia-settings | 02:51 |
| alien2050 | betrayd: yeah it looks like they think it's the max... that's too bad... I really thought it was only a simple configuration option... I've had bad experiences when not using twinview... oh well... thank you for your help | 02:51 |
| tophalf01 | I've been using IRC sinc 1989 hurhur <.> | 02:52 |
| betrayd | you're welcome, alien2050 | 02:52 |
| Arrarita | Just type nvidia-settings ? | 02:52 |
| hachre | Arrarita: yea | 02:52 |
| auscompgeek | mmhmm: lost track | 02:52 |
| mmhmm | auscompgeek: it's time to get back on track. | 02:53 |
| mmhmm | auscompgeek: general rule of thumb. | 02:53 |
| alien2050 | betrayd: and you know what, it DOES work when putting the window in the middle, then stretching on the second monitor, then moving it back to the center, resizing again, move, resize, etc... its just long and boring to do... | 02:53 |
| Arrarita | ok, something about not using the NVIDIA X driver, edit X configuration | 02:54 |
| Arrarita | and another box | 02:54 |
| hachre | Arrarita: can you run lspci and paste that output to paste.ubuntu.com | 02:54 |
| Arrarita | NVIDIA X Server Settings | 02:54 |
| alien2050 | betrayd: and if I do xwininfo on the stretched window, it has accepted it new width and height | 02:54 |
| betrayd | alien2050: you might want to try devilspie (which will enforce a max window the alternative way) | 02:54 |
| betrayd | if its in the repos | 02:54 |
| alien2050 | betrayd: cool let me try that... thx again | 02:55 |
| betrayd | ywelcome alien2050 and have fun, don't forget | 02:55 |

| Freel0ader | hi | 03:13 |
| dank101 | Arrarita, i know this issue | 03:13 |
| dank101 | happens to me | 03:13 |
| Freel0ader | so does that mean the program wont work anymore? | 03:14 |
| cfhowlett | Freel0ader, greetings | 03:14 |
| dank101 | let the computer sit | 03:14 |
| dank101 | Freel0ader, ? | 03:14 |
| Arrarita | not sure that is what it is, but I am willing to try anything | 03:14 |
| dank101 | Turn it off | 03:14 |
| Arrarita | turn what off? | 03:14 |
| dank101 | the computer | 03:14 |
| dank101 | 10m to 3hr | 03:14 |
| Arrarita | my problem has to do with my screen freezing and pages scrolling uncontrollably | 03:15 |
| cfhowlett | Arrarita, destkop?laptop? and have you cleaned the vents recently? | 03:15 |
| Arrarita | some else here suggested that it might be a temperature problem | 03:15 |
| Arrarita | desktop | 03:15 |
| Arrarita | it was just in the shop to be reconfigured so that I could use it after following some instruction from Launchpad on how to fix it. | 03:16 |
| Arrarita | The technician cleaned and checked everything | 03:16 |
| Arrarita | The other person suggested there might be a problem wtih the driver | 03:16 |
| cfhowlett | Arrarita, don't know how qualified your tech was, but fans/vents can and do get blocked ... any unusual noise? | 03:17 |
| alien2050 | I found the solution finally... yes! no more resizing manually | 03:17 |
| dank101 | probably overhesting | 03:17 |
| Arrarita | no noises | 03:17 |

| === jack is now known as Guest57458 | ||
| turova | Hello! I just downloaded 13.04 and am trying to install it on a dell xps 17 (l702x) that has 2 graphics cards. It won't boot into the desktop - I see a mouse cursor on a black screen. With 12.04, I had to use the alternate installer because the desktop installer wouldn't boot (most likely due to optimus).. With 13.04, there's no alternate installer image… Is there a way to get it working with 13.04? | 03:19 |
| cfhowlett | Arrarita, try this: reboot and choose and older kernel/version of ubuntu. Monitor your temp. If it fixes, then the kernel update is suspect | 03:19 |
| alien2050 | mdmkolbe: could be an upgrade left some artifacts, trying pointing her home directory to another directory, so it will create a new gnome/kde profile when she logs in | 03:20 |
| cfhowlett | !nomodeset|turova, | 03:20 |
| ubottu | turova,: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 03:20 |
| Arrarita | You have to bear with me, I don't understand half this stuff. How do I choose an older version of ubuntu? do I have to reinstall it? | 03:20 |
| Arrarita | and where do I monitor the temp? | 03:21 |
| === uno is now known as unowindows8 | ||
| cfhowlett | Arrarita, no problem. reboot. on the grub screen, you should see "older version" . Choose one | 03:21 |
| unowindows8 | hello all | 03:21 |
| cfhowlett | Arrarita, however you are doing it now that makes you think it's too hot | 03:21 |
| unowindows8 | I see you are busy with Arrarita but let me know when you can help me. I messed up my grub, and can't even live boot on my Windows 8 machine | 03:21 |
| cfhowlett | unowindows8, greetings | 03:22 |
| Arrarita | I don't remember seeing that. I just installed 13.04 | 03:22 |
| Freel0ader | dank101,help | 03:22 |
| dank101 | Freel0ader, yes | 03:22 |
| Arrarita | Another person I was working with here suggested it might be too hot. | 03:22 |
| Freel0ader | ImportError: No module named indicate | 03:22 |
| cfhowlett | Arrarita, ah, well, then you "upgraded" from 12.10 ... not update. details matter. | 03:22 |
| dank101 | Freel0ader, ubuntu only | 03:22 |
| dank101 | sorry | 03:22 |
| cfhowlett | Arrarita, another person? on irc? who isn't holding/touching your machine ... :) Why do YOU think it's running hot? | 03:23 |
| Arrarita | This problem started with 12.10. I upgraded today hoping this problem would be fixed and it's not | 03:23 |
| Arrarita | someone on irc | 03:23 |
| Freel0ader | dank101, so, i cant use this program after all:O | 03:24 |
| cfhowlett | Arrarita, what problem? you said "temperature" issues .. so that's NOT the issue? or did I misunderstand? | 03:24 |
| dank101 | Freel0ader, sadly you are correct | 03:24 |
| Arrarita | OK, let me do this again. | 03:24 |
| unowindows8 | hi cfhowlett | 03:25 |
| unowindows8 | hadn't seen you | 03:25 |
| Arrarita | My problem has to do with my computer constantly freezing when I have my browser open and uncontrollable scrolling. | 03:25 |
| unowindows8 | i broke my grub, already tried several things | 03:25 |
| Arrarita | It happens when I have a word document open as well | 03:25 |
| Arrarita | I can't do any work on it because it keeps freezing | 03:25 |
| Arrarita | and scrolling | 03:25 |
| Arrarita | Another person on irc first suggested it might be the driving not config correctly | 03:26 |

| turova | ubottu: I enabled that and could see the startup screen, but then it went to a black screen. When I did ctrl-alt-f5, ctrl-alt-f7, it shows me the same black screen with a mouse pointer, but at a worse resolution than when I booted without that flag. Are optimus issues generally fixed with nomodeset? If so, maybe I should just flash the image onto a different usb stick and try again | 03:26 |
| ubottu | turova: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 03:26 |
| cfhowlett | Arrarita, I see. try this (suspecting desktop environment issues), logout. click on the ubuntu icon to select a different envirnonent, i.e. non-unity. login | 03:26 |
| turova | oh, right - I meant cfhowlett | 03:27 |
| Arrarita | I will try and figure that out, but I have no clue what a non-unity environment is. | 03:27 |
| Arrarita | Thank you, I am going to try that. | 03:28 |

| hachre | cfhowlett: she has no working graphics drivers installed for acceleration and firefoxes web rendering acceleration causes her issues - i tried to make her give me an lspci output to figure out what graphics card she has but she stopped responding | 03:29 |
| Morph4me | i think it's like she says though it's a little over her head | 03:30 |
| hachre | yeah but she ran shell commands fine before, and also she could just say so instead of stopping to respond.. | 03:30 |
| Morph4me | true but at times hse did say she couldn't grasp it ...frustrated i think | 03:31 |

| tophalf01 | So, what you're saying is, you don't know what GNU is. | 03:34 |

| aliendude5300 | Hey, Ubuntu isn't detecting my Windows 8 partition, and I want to be able to dual boot into that for Photoshop CS5 and some other things that don't work with Linux quite yet (or as well) | 03:36 |
| aliendude5300 | How can I fix that? | 03:36 |

| cfhowlett | !uefi|aliendude5300, I'd suspect some uefi issues | 03:36 |
| ubottu | aliendude5300, I'd suspect some uefi issues: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 03:36 |
| aliendude5300 | cfhowlett, I'm running Ubuntu 13.04 right now. Is there anything I can do to add Windows 8 to the boot menu. Also, yes, I am on a UEFI system with SecureBoot disabled. | 03:38 |
| aliendude5300 | Sigh... it would be really nice to get my dual boot working :/ | 03:44 |
| Ed|Laptop | Hey Guys, currently running "release do-upgrade" on a Ubuntu 12.10 Server 64bit machine to update to Ubuntu 13.04 Server 64bit. The Server has a gigabit internet connection and is using about 20% CPU/memory. This update has been running almost 3 hours now, is this normal? | 03:44 |
| cfhowlett | Ed|Laptop, kind of depends on your DL speed, innit? | 03:44 |
| Ed|Laptop | Gigabit internet | 03:45 |
| aliendude5300 | Ed|Laptop, it might be because it's downloading the files. Because of the rather recent release, it would take longer because of the overloaded Ubuntu mirrors | 03:45 |
| cfhowlett | Ed|Laptop, but I suspect the servers are swamped ... torrent and clean install are the recommended work around | 03:45 |
| Ed|Laptop | ok i gotcha | 03:45 |
| Ed|Laptop | that makes sense | 03:45 |
| snowrichard | oh there's a 2013 version just released... | 03:46 |
| Ed|Laptop | when did 2013.04 release? Wasn't it a couple weeks ago? | 03:46 |

| mdmkolbe | alien2050: thx, for the suggestion. It turns out that something was corrupted in the session like you suggested and a "unity --reset" fixed it. | 03:47 |
| Ed|Laptop | damn! ok that makes even more sense then, ok thanks lol | 03:47 |
| ranjeet | I would like to access my machine from office? | 03:47 |
| sam113101 | what am I doing wrong? https://gist.github.com/sam113101/b74c433486d291c307fd | 03:47 |
| cfhowlett | ranjeet, firewall is not enabled by default | 03:47 |
| turova | cfhowlett: I just reflashed onto a new usb stick and ran with and without nomodeset and neither of those helps | 03:47 |
| ranjeet | but why am I unable to connect from office to home or vice versa | 03:48 |
| ranjeet | any help is appreciated | 03:48 |
| cfhowlett | turova, re-ask in this channel and state your attempted fixes. someone else might know | 03:48 |
| turova | cfhowlett: ok, thanks | 03:49 |
| ranjeet | cfhowlett: anything you would suggest? | 03:49 |
| renzom | hey everyone, i just upgraded to 13.04 from 12.10 and when i restarted, the desktop appeared and a few seconds later a kernel-panic black window showed up. It happens everytime I start my notebook. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance | 03:50 |
| aliendude5300 | renzom, I just had that exact same problem and spent 4 hours figuring it out... do you have an Nvidia GPU by any chance? | 03:50 |
| aliendude5300 | here's how I fixed that: In GRUB I added the nomodeset flag after the quiet in the boot options, then I started up in recovery mode while plugged into ethernet, did sudo apt-get update followed by sudo apt-get install nvidia-current. That did the trick. | 03:52 |
| nastsu | could anyone give me a hand, I was installing couchdb when it wouldnt stop so I used kill -9 {pid} and now it wont start again, even after purging and restarting | 03:52 |
| renzom | aliendude5300: no i don't have an nvidia card :( | 03:53 |
| aliendude5300 | try to do the same thing with fglrx instead of nvidia-current | 03:53 |
| aliendude5300 | I think it might be a graphics driver issue for you too | 03:53 |
| aliendude5300 | I upgraded by formatting my 12.10 partition, copying my /home to my external, and reinstalling 13.04. it was a pain, but I eventually got it | 03:54 |
| Guest75521 | easist way to stream videos from my pc to tablet? | 03:54 |
| renzom | aliendude5300: i'm sorry but i don't understand the "add the nomodeset flag" part of your explanation, can you further explain this part please? | 03:54 |
| Guest75521 | renzom getting a blank screen? lol | 03:55 |
| aliendude5300 | I honestly don't know what nomodeset does but it was suggested to me here when I asked for help. You hit e on the Ubuntu option, scroll your cursor to where it says 'quiet splash' then after quiet add a space and type "nomodeset" and then press ctrl-x to boot | 03:56 |
| renzom | aliendude5300: excellent, i'll try that, thanks man! | 03:57 |
| aliendude5300 | adding that option made it possible for me to boot, and then I installed the proprietary nvidia graphics driver which fixed all of my issues | 03:57 |
| nastsu | could anyone give me a hand, I was installing couchdb when it wouldnt stop so I used kill -9 {pid} and now it wont start again, even after purging and restarting | 03:57 |
| aliendude5300 | you're welcome! :D | 03:57 |
| SonikkuAmerica | After trying the mini.iso install of 12.04 LTS, I find I can no longer change my security update settings with software-properties-gtk. Is this a result of the mini.iso install? | 03:57 |
| turova | I'm trying to install Ubuntu 13.04 x64 desktop and can't seem to get the installer desktop to boot. I have a dell xps 17 (l702x) with optimus, which, I'm pretty sure, is why it won't load. I installed 12.04 with the alternate installer iso, but they don't seem to be making those anymore. I also tried setting the nomodeset flag, but that doesn't seem to help either - I see the loading screen, then a mouse cursor on a black screen, then ju | 03:59 |
| turova | black screen. Anyone have any suggestions for how I can get around this? | 03:59 |
| SonikkuAmerica | turova: You'd be right about the Optimus. Have you tried Bumblebee? (No. Seriously.) | 04:00 |
| turova | I can't get the installer to boot… I'm using bumblebee on my 12.04 instal | 04:01 |
| nastsu | Does anyone know why after using kill -9 {pid} the application wont start again even after purging and re-installing? | 04:01 |
| turova | SonikkuAmerica: but I'm trying to get 13.04 installed fresh over it and it won't even get into the installer | 04:01 |
| SonikkuAmerica | turova: You might try the alternate installer or the mini.iso | 04:02 |
| Biomechd | hey guys, is the canon ip2702 compatible with ubuntu 12.10? | 04:02 |
| SonikkuAmerica | like I did. | 04:02 |
| Biomechd | or is there anything i can do to get it to print? | 04:02 |
| turova | SonikkuAmerica: I wanted to use the alternate installer because that's how I installed 12.04, but I don't think it exists for 13.04… | 04:03 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Biomechd: The first few Google search results for "canon ip2702 ubuntu" might help. | 04:03 |
| SonikkuAmerica | turova: It should! Look for ubuntu-13.04-alternate-$ARCH.iso, where $ARCH is i386 or amd64 | 04:04 |
| SonikkuAmerica | After trying the mini.iso install of 12.04 LTS, I find I can no longer change my security update settings with software-properties-gtk. Is this a result of the mini.iso install? | 04:04 |

| wilee-nilee | SonikkuAmerica, Should not be. | 04:05 |
| nastsu | Does anyone know why after using kill -9 {pid} the application wont start again even after purging and re-installing? | 04:05 |
| SonikkuAmerica | zgudino: How, may I ask? | 04:05 |
| Corey | nastsu: What do the logs say? | 04:05 |
| turova | SonikkuAmerica: Yea, I really don't think that exists… That was what I looked for before coming here… At least I can't find it anywhere. You mind giving me a link if you know where it is? | 04:06 |
| nastsu | the logs arent telling me anything based on what I can see, though I don't know if I was looking in the right places | 04:06 |
| zgudino | SonikkuAmerica press alt + f2 | 04:06 |
| SonikkuAmerica | wilee-nilee: Oh wow, you're still up. Yeah, for some reason it's grayed out, the combo box for "When there are security updates:" (This is for 12.04) | 04:06 |
| zgudino | and type | 04:06 |
| ranjeet | can someone give some suggestions what sofwares to install in ubuntu 12.10? | 04:06 |
| zgudino | update-manager -d | 04:06 |
| zgudino | and then just follow the instruction | 04:07 |
| zgudino | :) | 04:07 |
| SonikkuAmerica | zgudino: Oh. I don't need your instructions; I was just wondering what method you used. | 04:07 |
| zgudino | hehe | 04:07 |
| SonikkuAmerica | zgudino: And you don't need the -d | 04:07 |
| cfhowlett | ranjeet, go to software center. see what you like. | 04:07 |
| Biomechd | SonikkuAmerica: the driver says "i386". doesn't that mean it's for a 32-bit system? or will it work just fine on my 64-bit system? | 04:07 |
| Ed|Laptop | So after 3 hrs the upgrade from 12.10 to unbutu 13.04 finally wrapped up (makes sense now that I know the release was just yesterday). Problem though is that post-reboot my ssh shell still tells me that a new release is available and to run "do-release-upgrade" however lsb_release -a shows that it is infact 13.04. Is there something else I need to do? | 04:07 |
| zgudino | oh cool! thanks @SonikkuAmerica | 04:07 |
| wilee-nilee | SonikkuAmerica, I do remember something like that check the sources list against one generated here. http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/ | 04:07 |
| zgudino | it is right now downloding :) | 04:08 |
| aliendude5300 | quick question -- where is the option to re-enable workspaces in 13.04 | 04:08 |
| nastsu | Corey, I can't seem to find anything related to the application anywhere and the log folder for that application is empty | 04:08 |
| cfhowlett | Ed|Laptop, run sudo apt-get update upgrade dist-upgrade | 04:08 |
| SonikkuAmerica | wilee-nilee: It'll be 12.10 when I reboot, but thanks for the link | 04:08 |
| wilee-nilee | no problem | 04:08 |
| Corey | nastsu: Which application is this? | 04:08 |
| nastsu | Corey, couchdb | 04:08 |
| Corey | nastsu: There a lingering pid file in /var/run | 04:09 |
| Corey | ? | 04:09 |
| zgudino | I cant quite remember but it should be under system settings @ aliendude5300 | 04:09 |
| zgudino | let me double check | 04:09 |
| nastsu | Corey, there seems to be one in there right now yes ( I did try to delete it earlier not sure if that was the right step for that) | 04:09 |

| SonikkuAmerica | zgudino: Another method you could try (which won't crash because of GTK+) is running [ do-release-upgrade ] in a tty. | 04:10 |
| Ed|Laptop | cfhowlett: OK thanks, ran this: apt-get update -y; apt-get upgrade -y; apt-get dist-upgrade -y; | Took about 30 seconds to run through without any errors, when I open a new SSH connection to the server though it still says "New release '13.04' available. \ Run 'do-release-upgrade' to upgrade to it." | 04:10 |
| aliendude5300 | zgudino: found it, thanks! :) | 04:10 |
| aliendude5300 | don't know why they removed that by default | 04:11 |
| dank101 | Ed|Laptop, reboot it | 04:11 |
| zgudino | +1 @SonikkuAmerica | 04:11 |
| Ed|Laptop | dank101: already did once, should I a second time? | 04:11 |
| dank101 | Ed|Laptop, yes | 04:11 |
| Ed|Laptop | k thanks will try dank! | 04:12 |

| renzom | hi, today i upgraded from 12.10 to 13.04 and i have a kernel-panic a few seconds after the desktop shows up, even if i try to ctrl+alt+f2 before it still crashes. I tried booting in safe mode but the system freezes few seconds after desktop appears. Any suggestions? thanks in advance | 04:26 |
| auscompgeek | aliendude5300: you could probably reconfigure the Windows 8 bootloader to show Ubuntu somehow | 04:26 |
| SonikkuAmerica | aliendude5300: Or try using EasyBCD | 04:27 |
| aliendude5300 | hmm... that would probably involve reinstalling Windows 8 to bring back it's bootloader. Such a hassle for something that has traditionally, in the past worked just fine -- Dual booting by installing Windows and then Ubuntu, and using GRUB to choose what to boot | 04:28 |
| aliendude5300 | If I didn't need to get to Windows, I would just wait for os-prober to be patched and run update-grub :/ | 04:29 |
| zgudino | @renzom no way you can boot to recovery? | 04:29 |
| FearNotMan | wilee-nilee: In case you're interested I finally figured it out, but it sucked way bad. I posted the solution here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/286284/system-no-longer-boots-suspected-grub-kernel-config-file-messed-up | 04:30 |
| renzom | @zgudino right now i booted to the previous kernel and works just fine, tried several times to boot in safe mode and everytime it freezes | 04:31 |
| cfhowlett | renzom, bad kernels do happen to good people ... | 04:31 |
| aliendude5300 | renzom, did you do an upgrade to 13.04 or a clean install? doing a clean install might help | 04:32 |
| SonikkuAmerica | cfhowlett: Oh, that was good. | 04:32 |
| renzom | @aliendude5300 it's an upgrade, i'll try a live version next to see what happens | 04:33 |

| aliendude5300 | auscompgeek: "Note: these methods will work on Legacy firmwares (not UEFI)" | 04:36 |
| SonikkuAmerica | *knew | 04:36 |
| Biomechd | anyway, i'm still having problems installing my printer. i tried editing a line in an i386 file, and it gave me this. http://www.pasteall.org/41756 | 04:37 |
| zgudino | there are several reports about kernel panic after upgrade. it seems you are not the only one @renzom | 04:37 |
| aliendude5300 | I have a UEFI system, unfortunately | 04:37 |
| NewbHelpmeh | As for the dual boot issue, is the solution here a viable one? Would it work for me? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1686335 | 04:37 |
| auscompgeek | aliendude5300: try the section before that | 04:37 |
| aliendude5300 | The problem with that is by "fixing" the MBR using a Windows install disc, I would lose access to Ubuntu. It would boot up straight into Windows | 04:38 |
| renzom | @zgudino i found a lot of dell notebooks among those who reported, mine is a dell too, might be a pattern? | 04:39 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Right. Boot Repair from an Ubuntu live image would fix this. | 04:39 |
| Biomechd | aliendude5300: there's a program you can install from your ubuntu livecd. | 04:39 |
| SonikkuAmerica | aliendude5300: Look at my last say in the channel... | 04:39 |
| zgudino | wow... | 04:39 |
| SonikkuAmerica | I think I overcooked my ramen noodles. | 04:40 |
| aliendude5300 | Biomechd: I'm in Ubuntu right now, and it's working flawlessly. Boot repair only fixes the dual boot issue with non-UEFI (legacy) systems at the moment, and running the repair tool provided by microsoft would break my ability to boot into Ubuntu. I'm a bit screwed here :( | 04:40 |
| Biomechd | SonikkuAmerica: you make me want ramen noodles now | 04:41 |
| auscompgeek | aliendude5300: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot#Master_Boot_Record_and_Boot_Manager might help as well | 04:41 |
| auscompgeek | aliendude5300: hopefully EasyBCD will work on UEFI Windows 8 bootloaders | 04:42 |

| syed_ | broadcom Corporation BXM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY | 04:55 |
| === Ken_ is now known as Guest64193 | ||
| cfhowlett | syed_, if you don't have that, you can install the linux STA driver from broadcom ... | 04:56 |
| aliendude5300 | syed_ plug your system into ethernet and install the b43 driver. This page should help you: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 04:57 |

| auscompgeek | aliendude5300: I believe you can install OpenJDK 6 by installing default-jre (or default-jre-headless) | 04:57 |

| syed_ | iso file. | 04:59 |
| aliendude5300 | auscompgeek I want Oracle Java (the newest, most secure version possible) | 05:00 |
| cfhowlett | syed_, good. what version? | 05:00 |
| syed_ | Its 12.04.2 | 05:01 |
| aliendude5300 | you could download the packages you need, put them on a flash drive, and then install them in Ubuntu | 05:01 |
| syed_ | The stable version | 05:01 |
| aliendude5300 | also, newer versions of ubuntu have better hardware support. 13.04 might support your wireless out of the box | 05:02 |
| spydon | The terminal on ubuntu 13.04 insists on opening bash instead of zsh even though zsh is in chsh, is there any solution for this? | 05:02 |

| Ed|Laptop | has anyone in here installed freenx server on ubuntu 13.04 ? | 05:05 |
| ipotato | I cannot even boot from a 13.04 usb drive, as the the screen is not useable | 05:05 |
| spydon | otend: maybe you can restart unity from TTY then? | 05:06 |
| === Onixs_ is now known as Onixs | ||
| ipotato | it's an intel ivy bridge chipset | 05:07 |
| otend | would that involve all programs restarting or just the wm and the like restarting? | 05:07 |
| otend | and what would be the command to restart? | 05:08 |
| spydon | otend: it is possible to restart unity and not close the programs, I don't remember how though... I think for example "sudo service gdm restart" will close your programs | 05:08 |
| spydon | otend: I can try first if you have important work that you might need to save? | 05:09 |
| otend | don't have much open | 05:09 |
| otend | oh, unity --replace seems to be it | 05:11 |
| otend | so close, and yet so far | 05:11 |
| otend | evidently, that was not the solution | 05:13 |
| spydon | otend: I think you have to set the screen not to be the TTY if you want to run unity --replace from there | 05:14 |
| otend | I just ran it from the screen itself | 05:14 |
| spydon | otend: which one was that? | 05:14 |
| otend | it sort of broke everything | 05:14 |
| otend | unity --replace | 05:14 |
| Biomechd | so i can't seem to access the printer settings in libreoffice after getting my laptop to acknowledge my printer while booted in ubuntu. | 05:14 |

| WormFood | how do I stop the gui? I need to stop x11 to install a program, and I can't figure out which one it is in /etc/init.d/ | 05:15 |

| spydon | WormFood: glad to help | 05:24 |

| spydon | iDrofox: "Offline upgrade options via alternate CDs are no longer offered for Ubuntu Desktop and Ubuntu Server. " | 05:40 |

| lorddune | it is a process included in the Ubuntu OS, can someone please glean some information on me | 05:50 |
| cfhowlett | lorddune, this looks better suited for #ubuntu-server | 05:51 |
| WormFood | I thought "Tiger" was a brand of beer | 05:51 |
| lorddune | cfhowlett: why is that? | 05:51 |
| lorddune | no, Tiger is an auditing / security check process within Linux kernel | 05:52 |
| DanaG | Silly thing: I edited the gdm css file to remove that hideous noise texture (which made me think something was wrong with my monitor or video drivers!)... | 05:52 |
| DanaG | ... and now gdm instead draws nothing. So, you get a hall-of-mirrors effect with the login box. | 05:52 |

| iceroot | juniour: then i would still use 12.04 (btw i am still using 12.04 on my main machine because its running fine) | 06:19 |
| juniour | iceroot humm.... | 06:20 |
| betrayd | juniour: you can still come to irc us... | 06:20 |
| aneks | iceroot, the bugs on launchpad are related to the beta versions, it doesn't tell me if the issue has been resolved in the stable version (which obviously didn't happen) | 06:21 |
| juniour | betrayd wt??? | 06:21 |

| Twenty-three | hello, my upgrade to 13.04 was aborted towards the end (~60% of the progress bar) and i received a couple of error messages, after rebooting almost everything was working "normal" but i'm concerned about the abprted upgrade, is there a way to verify whether there is anything to be fixed? | 06:23 |
| cfhowlett | Twenty-three, don't upgrade. clean install. get the iso via torrents. | 06:25 |
| Twenty-three | cfhowlett, the upgrade seems to have succeeded as it displays 13.04 and i see some new UI features, i just wonder if there is a way to verify things are ok | 06:26 |
| Biomechd | so i'm trying to install a new font quick, but it's not showing up in libreoffice. anyone got a fairly quick fix? | 06:26 |
| nic013 | need help with empathy!! | 06:27 |
| juniour | twenty-three make backup and clean install again :) | 06:29 |
| nic013 | guys, my facebook friends doesnt appear in the contact list in my empathy, i already tried re-installing | 06:29 |
| Twenty-three | juniour, is there a way to verify whether i have broken packages? | 06:30 |
| nic013 | can anyone help me? | 06:30 |
| rocketnine | I wrote a tutorial that applies to ubuntu, where can I submit it other than reddit? | 06:31 |
| Twenty-three | juniour: the OS is behaving well so far, so i am not as keen on trying something that extreme, i only wish to know if i can verify whether i have a problem at all | 06:31 |
| cfhowlett | Twenty-three, try this: apt-get update then apt-get upgrade then apt-get dist-upgrade. | 06:32 |
| cfhowlett | Twenty-three, that will put all 13.04 packages into your system | 06:32 |
| iceroot | Twenty-three: dpkg -l | grep -v ^ii | grep -v ^rc | 06:32 |
| Twenty-three | noted!, i'll go and try this right now, brb | 06:33 |
| iceroot | Twenty-three: if there are no packages listed, everything is fine and no packages are broken after the upgrade | 06:33 |
| Twenty-three | thanks iceroot & cfhowlett | 06:33 |
| cfhowlett | iceroot, nice one. so an empty list means all packages present and accounted for? | 06:34 |
| iceroot | cfhowlett: no outpout means everything is fine :) | 06:34 |

| nirjhor | hello | 06:47 |
| Yoshie | hello | 06:47 |
| nirjhor | I've installed hotot, in raring | 06:47 |
| dn4 | is there a way to boot up off a usb drive for ubuntu; and then have the usb have the entire OS; and just save stuff to that usb? | 06:47 |
| corrupt-upgrade- | my /home was encrypted with ecryptfs | 06:47 |
| corrupt-upgrade- | http://paste.ubuntu.com/5607277/ | 06:47 |
| nirjhor | but it is not getting me to sign in | 06:47 |
| iceroot | !usb | dn4 | 06:48 |
| ubottu | dn4: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 06:48 |
| nirjhor | the screen is just blank | 06:48 |
| SomeRandomDude | dn4: Yes! That's a VERY common feature actually, and it's called a persistience file. | 06:48 |
| iceroot | dn4: just install the system to the usb stick instead of the hdd | 06:48 |
| cfhowlett | corrupt-upgrade-, let's not jump to conclusions quite yet. I stated that a dedicated /home prevents data wipes on installation. Should also work the the same way during upgrade | 06:48 |
| SomeRandomDude | dn4: The USB startup disk creator will automatically add one if you use it to prep a USB stick 2GB or larger | 06:48 |
| nirjhor | there is one error ** (hotot:10999): WARNING **: Binding '<Alt>C' failed! | 06:48 |
| dn4 | is the Persistent more secure; than say a full install on the usb ? | 06:48 |
| corrupt-upgrade- | MY DATA GOT WIPED ON UPGRADE -- END OF STORY. Be warned 13.04 users. | 06:48 |
| iceroot | corrupt-upgrade-: way to much text on that paste | 06:49 |
| iceroot | corrupt-upgrade-: you cant mount the luks partition anymore? | 06:49 |
| SomeRandomDude | dn4: A full install on the USB is a stupid idea in my opinion. I don't think it's more or less secure, but it's the right way to do it. The link iceroot triggered will have all the information you need, but I think you'll find that if you prep a drive with the USB Startup Disk Creator (a part of every Ubuntu install) should do what you need. | 06:49 |
| SomeRandomDude | dn4: To clarify, the persistience file is the right way. | 06:50 |
| Yoshie | test, can anyone see my txt | 06:50 |
| SomeRandomDude | Yoshie: Yes, we can see it just fine. | 06:50 |
| Yoshie | thank you | 06:50 |
| dn4 | ok cool | 06:50 |
| corrupt-upgrade- | iceroot, dont think so since the kernel panic and file system became unreadable 50% into upgrade | 06:51 |
| corrupt-upgrade- | iceroot, how could i check? | 06:51 |
| dn4 | since I don't have ubuntu my install method has being using dd | 06:51 |

| cfhowlett | yellabs-r2, greetings | 06:51 |

| yellabs-r2 | are you sure ? | 06:52 |

| Magbed | hi | 07:01 |
| ppjdee | hey | 07:02 |
| Campfire | anyone know where ubuntu server support might be | 07:02 |
| SomeRandomDude | I have a question regarding the downloads: Why is Canonical doing their level best to hide the Torrent downloads? Wouldn't that mean less load on the main download servers? I realize not everyone can figure out a Torrent client, but why not distribute a 50KB executable that torrents the file, a la Blizzard Downloader? | 07:02 |
| guest-aGTYEf | cfhowlett: the side bar does not show so I cannot access anything. | 07:02 |
| Magbed | agree random... took me a while to find the damm torrent | 07:02 |
| SomeRandomDude | Campfire: Going out on a limb here and assuming there isn't a special server support channel (waiting for someone to jump out and correct me) but maybe if you posed your question here, I could help you. I've been fiddling with Server for a long time. | 07:03 |
| Campfire | :) | 07:03 |
| Campfire | mind if we talk about torrents | 07:04 |
| wilee-nilee | Campfire, #ubuntu-server | 07:04 |
| SomeRandomDude | Not at all | 07:04 |
| loof | I am trying to install the edubuntu flavor of ubuntu 13.04 off a USB stick. when I select Install... it starts up X and as far as I can tell is acting like a live CD - not the install I'm used to from prior versions | 07:04 |
| ppjdee | http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=339 ubuntu forums server support | 07:04 |
| Magbed | Just installed 13.04 and "Additional drivers" doesnt show anything for my nvidia card (680GTX) happened to someone else or someone knows a fix? | 07:05 |
| loof | I'm not sure if something is wrong... or if I'm missing something obvious... | 07:05 |
| loof | This is an older system, so without a bit of tuning X is a slideshow :P | 07:05 |
| ppjdee | anyways to suppress the joining/leaving messages? its killing me brain | 07:06 |
| juniour | Magbed see on additional drivers | 07:06 |
| cfhowlett | ppjdee, right click on the #channel then settings | 07:06 |
| Campfire | what are trackers just asking i read you can get faster downloads if you copy and paste the code in | 07:06 |
| Campfire | for torrents | 07:06 |
| Magbed | juniour thats the problem... its completely empty nothing to select there | 07:07 |
| Magbed | didnt happen on 12.04 | 07:07 |
| juniour | Magbed its compatiblity issue i think | 07:07 |
| Campfire | for ubuntu torrents | 07:07 |
| juniour | Magbed y u upgraded?? | 07:07 |
| ppjdee | cfhowlett where do i click? | 07:08 |
| cfhowlett | ppjdee, right click on #ubuntu tab | 07:08 |
| Campfire | somerandomdude i sended it | 07:08 |
| Magbed | y not? =) shouldnt be fair to suppose that it should keep working | 07:08 |
| Magbed | if i didnt upgrade ill still be using 10.10 | 07:09 |
| Campfire | i mean srd just a question up in text | 07:09 |
| SomeRandomDude | Campfire: Trackers have more or less been outmoded. A tracker is a server you hit up for a list of other people in the torrent swarm; you then hit up each person in that list and begin the torrenting process. | 07:09 |
| cfhowlett | !paste | 07:09 |
| ubottu | For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/?page=add | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 07:09 |
| juniour | Magbed make a backup and clean install buddy :) | 07:10 |
| SomeRandomDude | Campfire: It's since been replaced by a system called DHT, which means that everyone is the tracker, and no central infrastructure is necessary. A tracker is still nice, though, because it can save some time by just handing you a list of people to prime your DHT with | 07:10 |
| Magbed | thats what i did | 07:10 |
| Magbed | didnt upgrade directly | 07:10 |
| Magbed | thats always a mess | 07:10 |
| ppjdee | ah k found it lol thanks cfhowlett | 07:10 |
| juniour | hummm.......... | 07:10 |
| Campfire | oh ty srd | 07:11 |
| juniour | magbed your wifi,bluetooth | 07:11 |
| juniour | are working | 07:11 |
| juniour | ?? | 07:11 |
| SomeRandomDude | Campfire: I believe the torrent files available from Ubuntu.com contain tracker data, but the magnet URIs (What I believe you mean when you say copy and paste the code in) will suffice too, and will use the aforementioned DHT system | 07:11 |
| Magbed | im using ethernet and no bluetooth | 07:11 |
| Magbed | everything else is working fine | 07:12 |
| Magbed | atm its using Nouveau drivers... | 07:12 |

| exiledMYB | Hey guys for some reason when I type in ifconfig, I am only gettin the "lo" interface | 07:13 |

| juniour | ohhhh | 07:14 |
| bazhang | exiledMYB, what does lspci and/or lsusb show as the nic | 07:14 |
| exiledMYB | I should also mention that I'm running a VM on Virtualbox, but I figured this is an Ubuntu issue | 07:14 |
| juniour | magbed os its seem everything working fine man :) | 07:14 |
| Magbed | must be a bug... already reported | 07:14 |
| bazhang | exiledMYB, ubuntu is IN the vm? | 07:14 |
| Magbed | guess ill have to wait | 07:14 |
| exiledMYB | bazhang, ubuntu is THE vm | 07:15 |
| Jordan_U | exiledMYB: Have you added a network interface to the VM? | 07:15 |
| bazhang | exiledMYB, whats the host | 07:15 |
| exiledMYB | The host is my win 7 desktop | 07:15 |
| Jordan_U | exiledMYB: As in, configured VirtualBox to give this virtual machine a virtual ethernet card. | 07:15 |
| exiledMYB | yes, it is connected via Bridged | 07:16 |
| bazhang | exiledMYB, the vm wont use the hardware directly | 07:16 |
| juniour | exiledMYB in vm setting in network select bridge interface and reboot | 07:16 |
| exiledMYB | I'll try the reboot and see what happens, but I've been doing that all night :( | 07:16 |
| juniour | exiledMYB dont reboot directly | 07:17 |
| juniour | exiledMYB can you go in vm setting | 07:17 |
| Jordan_U | exiledMYB: Can you try booting another OS in the same virtual machine, possibly a LiveCD of some sort? (preferably literally the same, not just another virtualbox VM) | 07:17 |
| helmut_ | hi | 07:17 |
| juniour | exiledMYB you will see network, in network select bridged network then reboot | 07:17 |
| exiledMYB | Jordan_U: I kinda don't have time for that right now because I don't have any other VM setup | 07:17 |
| exiledMYB | Currently, my network is set to bridged, and I am going to reboot | 07:18 |
| Jordan_U | exiledMYB: You can't just pass an iso as the virtual CD and reboot? | 07:18 |
| juniour | exiledMYB if you follow me your problem will be resolved | 07:18 |
| SomeRandomDude | exiledMYB: He means he wants you to literally use the exact same VM you're having trouble with | 07:18 |
| exiledMYB | juniour, I'm trying. I hope it works :) | 07:18 |
| juniour | exiledMYB yes it will i think | 07:19 |
| Jordan_U | exiledMYB: I would be very surprised to find that support for VirtualBox's virtual ethernet hardware is anything but completely reliable and automatic, so I highly suspect that something isn't configured properly in VirtualBox. | 07:20 |
| NickNefarious | Can anyone tell me hoe to set up IRC for Empathy in 13.04? | 07:20 |
| juniour | exiledMYB you using vm ware or virtualbox??? | 07:20 |
| exiledMYB | Jordan_U, I was thinking the same thing. I'm using virtualbox | 07:20 |
| Jordan_U | NickNefarious: Empathy isn't a very good IRC client (most clients not dedicated specifically to IRC aren't). | 07:21 |
| exiledMYB | I've been having this problem for a while. Its just not consistent, idk whats wrong | 07:21 |
| juniour | exiledMYB you rebooted | 07:21 |
| juniour | A??/ | 07:21 |
| NickNefarious | Jordan I just use IRC for Ubuntu support occasionally... | 07:21 |
| exiledMYB | juniour, yes not im about to log in | 07:21 |
| juniour | NickNefarious try pidgin | 07:22 |
| exiledMYB | juniour, same problem my friend | 07:22 |
| exiledMYB | only "lo" interface is up | 07:22 |
| NickNefarious | juniour Empathy is pre-installed... so was hoping I could just use it.... | 07:22 |
| Jordan_U | juniour: NickNefarious: Pidgin is also a poor IRC client, I highly recommend Xchat, irssi, or some other client dedicated specifically to IRC. | 07:23 |
| juniour | exiledMYB you runnig the os with iso or preinstalled image | 07:23 |
| juniour | ??? | 07:23 |
| NickNefarious | juniour / Jordan Only problem is when I try to set up an account for IRC it opens the "Online Accounts" and there is nothing for IRC | 07:23 |
| exiledMYB | juniour, I installed the os from iso, but after that I no longer needed it | 07:23 |

| ShapeShifter499 | so I have a chrooted ubuntu 9.04 on my android system and I installed xfce4, when I start it I get an error "Could not lookup internet address for Nook-Ubuntu. This will prevent Xfce from operating correctly.

| juniour | NickNefarious skype problem is resolved??? | 07:44 |
| kingjag | i guess no one can help :-( | 07:45 |
| NickNefarious | juniour No, but what was I to do to resolve it? | 07:46 |
| juniour | NickNefarious clean install of skype will resolve | 07:46 |
| juniour | NickNefarious i gave you the link to download the package | 07:46 |
| NickNefarious | juniour So remove existing install and install again? | 07:47 |
| juniour | yep | 07:47 |
| juniour | NickNefarious wt you doing??? | 07:48 |
| NickNefarious | juniour I am in China - the Skype links redirect to a Chinese version called Tom Skype and I don't want to install it from there... | 07:50 |
| NickNefarious | juniour That is why I was trying to use a repo... | 07:50 |
| juniour | ohhh | 07:50 |
| chaotix | Jordan_U, how should i word it in the summary? "Guake terminal too low"? | 07:51 |
| juniour | k | 07:51 |
| NickNefarious | juniour But maybe I'll just have to use VPN and download it on other system | 07:51 |
| BigFist | hi, I'm trying to change min password length in /etc/pam.d/common-password, I'm adding an option minlen=3 to pam_unix.so module, but it doesn't affect anything. When i go to users config, and enter short password for one user, i still get password too short | 07:51 |
| NickNefarious | juniour so 'sudo apt-get remove skype' will remove all the packages it installed in the first place? | 07:52 |
| juniour | NickNefarious yep | 07:52 |
| Jordan_U | BigFist: What happens if you try to use "passwd" to change the password? (It might be that GNOME's users tool has additional restrictions) | 07:52 |
| morgan_ | how do I fix my desktop handler? I removed nautilus and wanna use nemo instead. right now my desktop is just black :( | 07:52 |
| BigFist | it changes a password without anything | 07:53 |
| juniour | NickNefarious your system is 64 bit??? | 07:53 |
| btral | hi | 07:54 |
| BigFist | Jordan_U: but then on login screen I'm not asked for password for that user | 07:54 |
| BigFist | (??) | 07:54 |
| BigFist | thats confusing | 07:54 |
| NickNefarious | juniour Yep 64bit | 07:54 |
| BigFist | whom password did i just changed ... ? | 07:54 |
| btral | i installed clamav. i want to update it's signiture. how can i change mirrors in /etc/clamav/clamd.conf | 07:54 |
| btral | ? | 07:54 |
| btral | is it possible? | 07:54 |
| juniour | NickNefarious skype 4.1 is not avalibe for ubuntu 13.04 | 07:55 |
| Jordan_U | BigFist: If you just ran "passwd" with no other arguments then it changed the password of the user you ran it as. | 07:55 |
| juniour | NickNefarious skype 4.0 is available | 07:55 |
| ppjdee | ^ | 07:55 |
| tingjun | agree with Jordan_U | 07:55 |
| ppjdee | just updated and rebooted and found that out | 07:55 |
| NickNefarious | juniour Sure. Where at? Skype website? | 07:56 |
| juniour | NickNefarious try this command to install skype | 07:56 |
| kingjag | ok all i am using ubuntu 12.04 LTS i am trying to VNC into my machine and upon connection i see a msg that says failed to load session "ubuntu" and then a button that just says Logout | 07:56 |
| juniour | NickNefarious sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" | 07:56 |
| BigFist | Jordan_U: no of course I didn't do anything like that, it would ask me for my password anyway, i ran "passwd children" | 07:57 |
| BigFist | where children is obviously a user name | 07:57 |
| juniour | NickNefarious done above command | 07:57 |
| juniour | NickNefarious now sudo apt-get update | 07:58 |
| Jordan_U | BigFist: What did you mean by "whom password did i just changed"? | 07:58 |
| juniour | NickNefarious sudo apt-get install skype && sudo apt-get -f install | 07:58 |
| ShapeShifter499 | Thats odd... placing my nook tablet near my trackpad on my laptop temporarily darkens the screen | 07:58 |
| ShapeShifter499 | on ubuntu 13.04 | 07:58 |
| BigFist | well i received password was changed after calling above command and entering new password | 07:59 |
| BigFist | so i wanted to try this out, and switched user | 07:59 |
| BigFist | (to children user) | 07:59 |
| BigFist | i hoped it will ask me for password | 07:59 |
| BigFist | but no, it logged me in, like there is no password | 07:59 |
| NickNefarious | Juniour That is how I installed it this time... without the -f arg | 07:59 |
| juniour | NickNefarious is that worked??? | 08:00 |
| rkhshm | how to i give normal user the right to mount disk drives? | 08:00 |
| BigFist | but i received a command password was changed, so i wonder password for who? I have only two users on my machine... | 08:00 |
| rkhshm | i can only do it as root | 08:00 |
| BigFist | and mine is still the same | 08:00 |
| juniour | NickNefarious is skype working???? | 08:01 |
| NickNefarious | Juniour No that was the way I installed it before and it wasn't working. But I didn't use the -f arg. Will that make a difference? It said it installed last time but it just wouldn't start | 08:01 |
| BigFist | maybe ubuntu doesn't use /etc/pam.d/password-common ?? | 08:01 |
| BigFist | I'm totally confused rigth now | 08:01 |
| morgan_ | how do I fix my desktop handler? I removed nautilus and wanna use nemo instead. right now my desktop is just black :( | 08:01 |
| juniour | NickNefarious just give a try | 08:01 |
| juniour | NickNefarious with -f | 08:01 |

| cloneG | hello there I am using an ubuntu 12.04 and a NVIDIA Geforce 8800 GT card to use 3d acceleration I just installed bumblebee but it fails to start with the error: no integrated video card found, quitting any ideas? | 08:07 |
| Ben64 | cloneG: why would you install bumblebee? | 08:08 |
| BigFist | I will ask different password | 08:08 |
| NickNefarious | juniour That installed - skype (4.1.0.20.0-0ubuntu0.12.04.2) - and it finished install ok but it just won't launch | 08:08 |
| BigFist | How can I totaly disable password restrictions in ubuntu | 08:08 |
| Jordan_U | cloneG: Are you sure that you have an integrated graphics card in addition to your separate dedicated Nvidia card? | 08:08 |
| cloneG | Ben64 because without it I couldnt even start x | 08:08 |
| cloneG | Jordan_U: I dont even know what an integrated card is | 08:09 |
| Ben64 | cloneG: but bumblebee is for dual gpu systems, usually laptops. definitely not an 8800GT | 08:09 |
| morgan_ | [deXter], the issue happened after I did: gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background show-desktop-icons false | 08:10 |
| morgan_ | [deXter], when I did the next step: gsettings set org.nemo.desktop show-desktop-icons true | 08:10 |
| morgan_ | [deXter], it broke | 08:10 |
| cloneG | Ben64: oh I didnt know, I just read it would help with nvidia driver config and I gave it a try | 08:10 |
| [deXter] | morgan_, Then just reverse it .. set the first one to true and the next one to false | 08:11 |
| Ben64 | cloneG: you should read stuff more completely. you now need to remove bumblebee and install nvidia the correct way | 08:11 |
| ppjdee | @cloneG intergrated graphics means its built into the motherboard | 08:11 |
| cloneG | Ben 64: the point is desktop is running now...though no 3d acceleration | 08:11 |
| Whiskey | How do i get tcllib to be installed for 1.6 | 08:11 |
| Whiskey | 8.6, it has installed tcl8.6 and tcl8.6-dev but not the lib | 08:11 |
| morgan_ | [deXter], oh that's smart, but, now does that mean nautalus or w/e is back to default and not nemo? | 08:11 |
| morgan_ | [deXter], or does it not really matter for the desktop handler | 08:12 |
| [deXter] | yeah it doesn't matter | 08:12 |
| morgan_ | ok ty! | 08:12 |
| morgan_ | yep my desktop is back now woot | 08:12 |

| Iszak | MonkeyDust following it, but i don't need to re-install grub or the kernal, this is a secondary hard drive. | 09:06 |
| m0loch | MonkeyDust: I was able to connect from my home computer to a VPS server. The server was running ubuntu 12.10 - openswan l2tp/ipsec whatever version it had. Followed some tutorial on the net, and it worked just fine. Upgraded to 13.04 and now can't connect | 09:08 |
| MonkeyDust | Iszak that's beyond me -- put your question and the comment about kernel and secondary hard drive in one line a,d repeat it every 10 minutes or so, until someone enters who can help | 09:08 |
| Moh2335 | oh hey edd was gone | 09:09 |

| MonkeyDust | m0loch is it the server you upgrades to 13.04? if yes, consider asking in #ubuntu-server | 09:09 |
| Iszak | running 13.04 on a production server? ouch. | 09:10 |

| Moh2335 | ah :) good to know | 09:20 |
| edd_ | It just opened something crazy looking and little scary | 09:21 |
| Moh2335 | ahahah | 09:21 |
| DanaG | I usually do 'sudo -i', because 'sudo su' looks silly. | 09:21 |

| kblin | hi folks | 09:22 |
| edd_ | Well am just gona press shit :D | 09:22 |
| Moh2335 | :P | 09:22 |
| eos__ | hi all! Do you know of a client for ubuntu that allows you to post to twitter, identica, facebook, google+, etc.? If it does support also forums better .... | 09:22 |
| kblin | I'e got trouble printing to a network printer from my new 13.04 system, works just fine from the 10.04 system I also run | 09:22 |
| eos__ | managing all these social networks has become impossible. | 09:22 |
| kblin | as far as I can see, the cups settings are identical | 09:23 |
| kblin | so I'm a bit stumped as to where the problem might be | 09:23 |
| DanaG | HDMI issues? Two things to check: pavucontrol (pulseaudio volume control), and: do you have an ATI card? | 09:23 |
| kblin | any hints? | 09:23 |
| Moh2335 | no dana he has an intel | 09:23 |
| DanaG | ATI with the open-source drivers defaults to not actually passing the HDMI audio. | 09:23 |
| Hans-Martin | Hi folks, I'm having problems with nouveau and wifi. It's clearly related to nouveau, as soon as I switch back to nvidia proprietary drivers wifi is working again. | 09:23 |
| Moh2335 | oh dana could you take it over? i have to go :P | 09:23 |
| srefon | wy oh why wont this stupid board reboot | 09:24 |

| edd_ | HDMi mute? | 09:24 |
| edd_ | Ill untick that | 09:24 |
| DanaG | Hah, for me, nvidia's Optimus doesn't even work IN WINDOWS! | 09:24 |
| Hans-Martin | I remember trying nouveau a long time ago and giving up due to the same problem, looks like it has not been fixed in 13.04 | 09:24 |
| kblin | Seveas: the problem is that my jobs aren't printing | 09:24 |
| edd_ | Right i pressed lots of shit :D | 09:24 |
| edd_ | Lets see if it works | 09:24 |

| dechi | No idees ? | 09:33 |
| hydrox24 | Permission denied. | 09:34 |
| hydrox24 | Full error is as follows: | 09:34 |
| Ben64 | hydrox24: what command are you using to mount | 09:34 |
| hydrox24 | mount error(13): Permission denied | 09:34 |
| hydrox24 | Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) | 09:34 |
| hydrox24 | sudo mount -t cifs //BAINTONS/Music /mnt/iTunes -o guest | 09:34 |

| hydrox24 | I've tried using the desktop's IP but that didn't help. | 09:35 |
| DanaG | Rolled back to the regular gnome3 ppa (versus 'staging'), and now it works. | 09:35 |
| kblin | Seveas: I fail to spot major differences | 09:35 |
| Ben64 | hydrox24: doesn't look like right syntax to me | 09:35 |
| hydrox24 | adrenalink: You might be able to get some more help with that (if no-one here knows) by going the linux channel. #linux | 09:35 |
| kblin | Seveas: and I can reach the system the print server is installed on just fine, even on port 631 | 09:35 |
| hydrox24 | Ben64: example taken from the man page: mount -t cifs //server/share /mnt --verbose -o user=username | 09:36 |

| dn4 | what is a good size for a swap space | 09:37 |
| Jordan_U | dn4: Do you want to be able to suspend to disk (hibernate)? | 09:37 |
| === rclancy is now known as Guest95022 | ||
| eos__ | dn4: I go for 2xRAM + 10% | 09:37 |
| hydrox24 | Ben64: it's a valid option to set it so that there aren't any security credentials. | 09:37 |
| dn4 | Jordan_U, I don't care really | 09:38 |
| hydrox24 | Ben64: Which is how I've setup my windows share. | 09:38 |
| Ben64 | hydrox24: well you have an authentication problem, so you need to recheck all that | 09:38 |
| === NePtUnO|Off is now known as NePtUnO | ||
| MonkeyDust | dn4 if you plan to hibernate/suspend alot: use twice the RAM size for swap | 09:39 |
| CQ | where are the files from a release-upgrade kept? | 09:39 |
| hydrox24 | Ben64: I'm clear that it's telling me that there's and auth problem but I've tried 10s of combinations of usernames and domains and whatnot. | 09:39 |
| dn4 | MonkeyDust, what happens if I don't have that at all ? | 09:40 |
| Jordan_U | dn4: Then it doesn't matter much. You'll probably want at least a GiB of swap just in case you really do start exhausting your RAM (which shouldn't happen often). | 09:40 |
| Ben64 | hydrox24: windows isn't accepting the username/password combo you're using. windows doesn't play nicely | 09:40 |
| hydrox24 | Ben64: I've tried the command from multiple ubuntu laptops on the network too, each running a different version of ubuntu. | 09:40 |
| hydrox24 | Ben64: any ideas on where to look in windows for clues then? | 09:40 |
| kblin | dn4: I've got 265 gb ram number crunchers where I never bother to set up swap | 09:40 |
| Ben64 | nah, haven't used windows for a decade | 09:40 |
| DanaG | Event Viewer -- eventvwr.msc | 09:41 |
| Jordan_U | dn4: Without swap, if you run out of RAM then the kernel's OOM killer will kill processes until you do have available RAM. | 09:41 |
| kblin | dn4: that's fine if you never expect to run out of ram | 09:41 |
| TakeItEZ | dn4: you always can add a swapfile later, if you really need some swap | 09:41 |
| DanaG | Speaking of RAM and swap: I'd rather have things CRASH than have the whole system grind to a halt, swapping. | 09:41 |
| DanaG | ... in situations of something devouring memory. | 09:41 |
| Jordan_U | dn4: With swap, if you run out of physical RAM then the kernel will start using swap, and by that time you should hopefully notice that something is wrong and fix it before your swap fills up as well (which should take longer, given that disks are slow). If you run out of RAM and swap, you're back to the OOM killer. | 09:42 |
| Jordan_U | DanaG: You can always alt+sysrq+F (to manually trigger the OOM killer). | 09:43 |
| dn4 | what is OOM killer ? | 09:43 |
| MonkeyDust | out of memory | 09:43 |
| Jordan_U | dn4: Out Of Memory killer, again it kills processes (in a not very nice way) to free memory. | 09:44 |

| cristian_c | but I get an error | 09:45 |
| cristian_c | Any ideas? | 09:45 |
| Jordan_U | dn4: The fans in Macs are controlled by the firmware, so even if the OS knows nothing about them they will still run when things start getting hot. There is also support for telling the firmware to increase the fan speed (or decrease it, though that's not recommended), but I don't know what percentage of models are supported. | 09:47 |

| Walex | srefon: that's somewhat unlikley, unless the integrated radeon has a slightly different version number. | 09:59 |

| Campfire | my bad bring on ubuntu | 10:07 |
| Walex | srefon: for example my output is "01:00.0 0300: 1002:94b3" and the chip code is "1002:94b3" | 10:07 |
| srefon | spci not foun | 10:08 |
| srefon | found* | 10:08 |
| Walex | srefon: "lspci" oops | 10:08 |
| Outcast | onr thanks .. I'll try that | 10:09 |
| srefon | ok got it | 10:10 |
| MonkeyDust | Timvde just installed gnome-panel and am using it now, ok, looks a bit like gnome2 | 10:10 |
| MonkeyDust | Timvde in the LightDM menu, it's called Fallback | 10:11 |
| Timvde | MonkeyDust: So Ubuntu is still shipping it in 13.04? Awesome, thanks :) Upgrading tomorrow ^^ | 10:11 |
| srefon | so Walex what should i fo with it? | 10:12 |
| srefon | 1002:9802 | 10:12 |
| Walex | srefon: a web search, and/or compare with the codes in the 'Xorg.log'. | 10:12 |
| srefon | some old bugs popped but nothing reveland | 10:13 |
| srefon | thing is why the installation of 13.04 hangs | 10:13 |
| MonkeyDust | Timvde note: when I try to open a folder from the Fallback menu, it opens Totem mediapayer, so not Nautilus filemanager | 10:13 |
| Walex | srefon: the old bugs seem to provide a few workarounds... | 10:14 |
| Timvde | MonkeyDust: What? O.o But I guess I can fix that somewhere... *sigh* | 10:14 |
| Walex | srefon: it looks like there are bugs in 3D accel support with that chip. And perhaps using a newer kernel would help, e.g. from backports. | 10:15 |
| srefon | i had a backportted 3.7 kernel | 10:15 |
| srefon | 3.7.0-7-generic | 10:15 |
| Walex | srefon: ahhhh. Perhaps then try to do the opposite. Sometimes bugs happen on *newer* stuff that is not yet tested on all chip variants. | 10:16 |
| srefon | probably | 10:16 |
| srefon | second problem is i disabled all the update options in software center and probably that now emerged as i cant install enything with dependecies with apt-get | 10:17 |
| srefon | i get that cant find dependecy package | 10:17 |
| Walex | srefon: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1069353 seems a bit relevant too | 10:17 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1069353 in linux (Ubuntu) "1002:9802 graphics driver does not load on boot Radeon HD 6310" [Medium,Invalid] | 10:17 |
| MonkeyDust | Timvde and when returning to Unity after Fallback, my launchbar is set back to default | 10:17 |
| Walex | srefon: I do all updates carefully with 'aptitude' that usually helps see dependencies and/or select manually specific verions of specific packages for cases like this. | 10:18 |
| Timvde | MonkeyDust: Not planning to use Unity :) I might give it another try in next LTS, but not sooner | 10:18 |
| Outcast | onr .. I did as you suggested but couldn't really change anything..BUT.. It now points to where it should.. So.. Problem solved.. Thankyou | 10:18 |
| shmoon | curious regarding something, how can i mount a partition as /home ? | 10:19 |
| shmoon | so there's a partition which is empty, i mount it as /home | 10:19 |
| Walex | shmoon: that's fine. | 10:19 |
| shmoon | Walex: ? what command ? | 10:20 |
| Walex | shmoon: 'mount' or you edit the relevant line in '/etc/fstab' | 10:20 |
| shmoon | mount /dev/sda9 /blaster mounts /dev/sda9 FS to /blaster , but i want to do it like /dev/sda9 is empty so any contents of /blaster becomes available in that device, do i make sense? | 10:20 |
| srefon | i still wonder why my gigabyte motherboard worked like a charm | 10:21 |
| Walex | shmoon: BTW having separate filesystems for '/' and '/home' is a nice idea so you can update the system being used. | 10:21 |
| shmoon | :D | 10:21 |
| Jordan_U | Walex: shmoon: You don't need a separate /home/ partition to update, or upgrade, or re-install Ubuntu while preserving /home/. | 10:21 |
| shmoon | yeah was thinking, so mounting /home to a new unused partition how'd that bedonme? | 10:22 |
| shmoon | be done* | 10:22 |
| Jordan_U | shmoon: First you'd need to copy the current contents of /home/ to the new filesystem. | 10:22 |
| Walex | srefon: it probably had a slightly different graphics chip. Or perhaps there is a bug triggered by some other chip driver, or some BIOS setting. | 10:22 |
| Walex | Jordan_U: it is not necessary but it gives a lot more options. | 10:22 |
| shmoon | Jordan_U: what command helps doing that? | 10:23 |
| onr | Outcast: you're welcome :) | 10:23 |
| shmoon | Jordan_U: so basically write to disk block by block ? | 10:25 |
| srefon | but why i t wont restart? | 10:28 |
| srefon | will now reastar and nothing happens | 10:28 |
| Jordan_U | !separatehome | srefon | 10:28 |
| ubottu | srefon: Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving | 10:28 |

| srefon | got hit by electricity | 10:29 |
| shmoon | basically my question is, if i have /hoe and an empty partition I want to make that empty partition mount as /home | 10:32 |
| shmoon | or lets say /home is running out of space i add in another Hard disk and use that as /home something along those lnes, how is it done ? I guess plain simple mount command wont help[ | 10:32 |
| Dr_willis | shmoon, you can move specicic users to the other partition and link them to your /home if you want to use both. | 10:32 |
| Dr_willis | shmoon, or move all of the current home to the new partion, then mount it to /home | 10:33 |
| Jordan_U | shmoon: Or you can just link individual directories, like ~/Videos, so that they are stored on your other drive. | 10:34 |
| shmoon | Dr_willis: how do i move all /home to new partition? | 10:34 |
| Dr_willis | same as you copy/move files from any other directory | 10:35 |
| Jordan_U | shmoon: See the link from ubottu. | 10:35 |
| shmoon | oh i see, i thought partiitons are device files i guess so cp/mv wouldn't work | 10:35 |
| Dr_willis | shmoon, you MUST mount the filesystem to copy stuff to it | 10:35 |
| shmoon | Jordan_U: where? | 10:35 |
| Dr_willis | a partiton is a device :) | 10:36 |
| Jordan_U | !separatehome | shmoon | 10:36 |
| ubottu | shmoon: Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving | 10:36 |
| Dr_willis | if your current home is on its own partion you could clone it to a new partition | 10:36 |

| Mike3620 | How do you start an x windows session over ssh? | 12:30 |
| UbuntuCloud | mattwj2002 is there any GUI tools for creating raid on ubuntu | 12:30 |
| UbuntuCloud | Mike3620 start x | 12:31 |

| sam113101 | HELP | 12:34 |
| sam113101 | I can't run a file, zsh says it doesn't exist but it does | 12:35 |
| mattwj2002 | Ubuntucloud if you are dealing with servers..... | 12:35 |
| mattwj2002 | I might recommend #ubuntu-server | 12:35 |
| mattwj2002 | they are better at things like raid | 12:35 |
| mattwj2002 | :) | 12:35 |
| UbuntuCloud | sam113101 check file permission and set chmod 775 our 7777 | 12:35 |
| mattwj2002 | or | 12:35 |
| UbuntuCloud | the run again ./file name | 12:35 |
| mattwj2002 | you could try chmod u+x | 12:35 |
| UbuntuCloud | mattwj2002 thanks for advice | 12:36 |
| mattwj2002 | I am sorry I wasn't much help | 12:36 |
| Mike3620 | UbuntuCloud: It says an x server is already running | 12:36 |
| mattwj2002 | :( | 12:36 |
| mattwj2002 | that bums me out I couldn't fix it! | 12:36 |
| Dan-E | Installed Ubuntu 13.04 and now when I click on the "X" to shut a program down it just grays out and won't shut down. Any Help??? | 12:37 |
| ServerTechLaptop | Is there a way to check in ubuntu server 12.04 whether gnome is running (after installing ubuntu-desktop) | 12:37 |
| usr13 | Dan-E: What program is it? | 12:37 |
| Dan-E | all | 12:37 |
| UbuntuCloud | Mike3620 wich system u want run if gnome you have to sudo gdm start | 12:37 |
| usr13 | Dan-E: So, alternately, how are you shutting them down? | 12:38 |
| Dan-E | Under "File Quit" | 12:38 |
| sam113101 | the file permissions are 755 already | 12:39 |
| usr13 | Dan-E: Ok, I would suppose the X should no longer be there. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 12:39 |
| usr13 | Dan-E: You can also do Ctrl-q or Ctrl-w | 12:39 |
| Dan-E | k | 12:39 |
| UbuntuCloud | sam113101 the use 777 | 12:39 |
| UbuntuCloud | ./filename | 12:40 |
| Dan-E | but the problem still remains | 12:40 |
| Mike3620 | I am trying to access my servers x window from my home machine | 12:40 |
| Mike3620 | But cant | 12:40 |
| usr13 | Dan-E: Some apps will close with Ctrl-q others need Ctrl-w | 12:40 |
| Dan-E | my question is why won't the "X" work???? | 12:41 |
| adrenalink | is it possible that a package installation recompiles the kernel? | 12:41 |
| MonkeyDust | Mike3620 with what protocol? | 12:41 |
| Mike3620 | MonkeyDust: Ssh | 12:42 |
| usr13 | Dan-E: (Firefox uses Ctrl-w) (I sometimes just do Ctrl-q w. In other words I hold Ctrl and it q and then w.) | 12:42 |
| Mike3620 | Gnome | 12:42 |
| MonkeyDust | Mike3620 try ssh -y | 12:42 |
| MonkeyDust | Mike3620 or ssh -Y (upper case) | 12:42 |
| Mike3620 | Thnx will try | 12:42 |
| UbuntuCloud | Mike3620 why you installed gnome on server at all ssh -y | 12:42 |
| detvarejeg | if i upgrade to ubuntu 13.04 from u 12.10,is it jätte mycket that has to be downloaded my English good | 12:42 |
| Dan-E | Why does the "X" just gray out just Gray out | 12:43 |
| doc_b | Can somebody help me. Using 12.10 when I plug my external hard drive into the computer and click on its directory the folder is empty. But when I cd into that folder it is show all my documents. Why is this happening? | 12:43 |
| usr13 | Dan-E: I don't like for Firefox to ask if I want to shut down multiple tabs and Ctrl-w circumvents that process. | 12:43 |
| mank319 | hello :-) | 12:43 |
| mank319 | I am currently setting up a home server which will primarily serve as a nas | 12:44 |

| Dan-E | not yet | 12:44 |
| mank319 | shall i choose ubuntu server or rather the alternate install disc | 12:44 |
| wgqt251 | is there any way of running ubuntu 13.04 desktop in kvm with 3D disabled? it _so_ slow, probably because it is using software 3D. | 12:44 |
| mank319 | and then just select what i need | 12:44 |

| mank319 | low powerconsumption etc. | 12:45 |
| mank319 | no | 12:46 |
| mank319 | ssh is enough | 12:46 |
| usr13 | mank319: ubuntu-server | 12:46 |

| oriez | I just upgraded my ubuntu and I cannot run .sh scripts from nautilus | 13:11 |
| oriez | its open as a text file... | 13:12 |
| doc_b | oriez: right click file and allow executable? | 13:12 |
| === ubuntu is now known as Guest84774 | ||
| Guest84774 | anybody here | 13:12 |
| Aaruni | or chmod +x, maybe oriez | 13:12 |
| Guest84774 | sa tu jacys Polacy? | 13:13 |
| oriez | did it.. | 13:13 |
| oriez | and still | 13:13 |
| srefon | moze i sa | 13:13 |
| usr13 | doc_b: From what you've shown us, I still don't see what you are talking about. I will say this though, I do not use Nautilus, I use thunar | 13:14 |
| doc_b | oriez: maybe sudo chmod /file/directory | 13:14 |
| warefare | what exactly is the purpose of the overflow tmp - it messed up my system a few times now, always changing tmp to 1MB - should be fixed imo | 13:15 |
| usr13 | doc_b: I suppose you can install tunar (even though you are not an xfce user). But, if you wanna become an xfce user, just do: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop | 13:15 |
| Aaruni | oriez: you should get something like this, if its executable : http://edufor.fosspowered.com/img/image.php?di=UY6D | 13:15 |
| oriez | it's system wide problem.. it's noting to do with chmod/.. | 13:15 |
| oriez | i know.... | 13:16 |
| doc_b | usr13: so when I open the folder that the hard drive is mounted to. It is blank. But cd shows files. I can read and write through command line but that is time consuming | 13:16 |
| oriez | it's happend after upgrading | 13:16 |
| usr13 | doc_b: In other words, I have no idea what your problem is, but I use thunar and I like it better. | 13:16 |
| doc_b | usr13: I'll probably upgrade to 13.04 soon that might fix it. Just don't have time to mess with it now ha | 13:16 |
| Aaruni | oriez: maybe something to do with default applications. do try checking your default application settings | 13:16 |
| usr13 | doc_b: The screenshot does not show the file manager: http://imagebin.org/255572 | 13:16 |
| doc_b | usr13: oh sorry, I'll take a look at that thanks anyway | 13:17 |
| usr13 | doc_b: so... I still don't see | 13:17 |
| oriez | Aaruni: where? | 13:17 |
| doc_b | usr13: the folder under firefox browser is nautilus | 13:17 |
| eos__ | is there a client for ubuntu that allows you to post to FB, twitter,identica,G+ at the same time? | 13:17 |

| usr13 | doc_b: That's what I asked you to show us. | 13:19 |

| oriez | .sh kind of scripts | 13:27 |

| warefare | hmm is there any easy way to rebuild fstab? Its always adding 1MB TMP overflow to /etc/mtab | 13:28 |

| doc_b | usr13: don't have a windows box handy so I will have to check that another day. (cp -R /source/ /destination)? | 13:28 |

| usr13 | Paul_: X | 13:33 |
| georgi | is there 13.10 version already? | 13:33 |
| usr13 | Paul_: ubuntu-desktop | 13:33 |
| MonkeyDust | Paul_ other default packages installed, other partitioning, no grpahical DE by default | 13:33 |
| yeats | !13.10 | georgi | 13:33 |
| ubottu | georgi: Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy Salamander) will be the 19th release of Ubuntu. Announcement: http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/1252 - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 13:33 |
| yeats | georgi: but it's not available yet - give it a week or so | 13:34 |
| DJones | Paul_: Server doesn't have any GUI pre-installed and is aimed at people running a server of some form, desktop is for people running a home machine | 13:34 |
| georgi | ok | 13:34 |
| usr13 | Paul_: In other words, server does not have X installed | 13:34 |
| georgi | where can I check if it is available | 13:34 |
| usr13 | georgi: Do you know what the date is? | 13:35 |
| MonkeyDust | georgi https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SaucyReleaseSchedule | 13:35 |
| georgi | 27 | 13:35 |
| megamanx1978 | I checked and the repos are enabled | 13:35 |
| usr13 | georgi: 13.10 is 2013 October | 13:35 |
| Paul_ | So if you're starting with Ubuntu, you aren't limited package-wise by using desktop? | 13:35 |
| yeats | Paul_: nope | 13:36 |
| BluesKaj_ | megamanx1978, do get any errors ? | 13:36 |
| georgi | I meant the alpha version usr13 | 13:36 |
| BluesKaj_ | do you rather | 13:36 |
| yeats | georgi: even alphas won't be available for a while | 13:36 |
| DJones | Paul_: You can run a server from either server or desktop editions, or you can install server and then add a desktop | 13:36 |
| georgi | is it possible may? | 13:36 |

| red22 | I am trying to upgrade from12.10 to 13.04.. I have the ubuntu-13.04-desktop-amd64.iso copied on my disk. My internet connection is very slow so is there some way I can add that iso as a valid source for updates/upgrading please? | 14:05 |
| minas | red22, what do you mean add it as an update source? | 14:06 |
| red22 | I read a completely offline upgrade isn't possible to 13.04, and that is ok... I just want to be able to take advantage of not having to download what is already available on the iso... | 14:06 |
| mank319 | hey there | 14:07 |
| minas | red22, oh, you have the ISO but you want to upgrade, not do a clean install. How fast is your connection? | 14:07 |
| red22 | minas, yeah, as a source for ubuntu to see as valid for upgrading to 13.04 | 14:07 |
| mank319 | usb startup disk creator fails when trying to install ubuntu 12.01 server | 14:07 |
| mank319 | it will fail installing the bootloader | 14:07 |
| mank319 | not earlier | 14:08 |
| mank319 | cant i just take grub from another bootable system then? | 14:08 |
| mank319 | or | 14:08 |
| red22 | minas, The iso took like 2 days to download.. Power outages and all.. So I would really like to avoid that again ;) | 14:08 |
| mank319 | let me reformulate my question | 14:08 |
| mank319 | if i create a bootable installation of lets say ubuntu desktop can i just "add" ubntu server and use the other ones bootloader | 14:09 |
| minas | red22, oh, that slow :) Well, I don't know the solution to what you are asking for, sorry. | 14:09 |
| John_m | mank319, i think yes | 14:09 |
| mank319 | well it didnt work out | 14:10 |
| mank319 | he asked me again to type pwd for installing bootloader :( | 14:10 |
| mank319 | and i declined | 14:10 |
| mank319 | or should i have tried it hoping that it'd recognize the already existant grub? | 14:10 |
| usr13 | red22: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/upgrade | 14:10 |
| red22 | minas, ok no prob thanks for trying! somehow i think ubuntu should just recognize the official iso and ask me if I want to upgrade or add as a source at least from it when I double click :/ | 14:11 |
| mank319 | one last try :D | 14:11 |
| red22 | usr13, let me check it out... but I believe I have read that and a great many pages without finding what I need... thanks for link, will let you know in a few minutes. | 14:12 |
| John_m | mank319, u need manual add settings for server in /boot/grub/menu.lst, u try it? and why desktop grub can install and server not? | 14:12 |
| minas | red22, yeah , that would be a good thing. If your pc is a laptop, you could go to a place with fast internet (but I guess would have done it, so it must be a desktop) | 14:12 |
| lomo7 | hey, i have asrock 970 extreme 4, how do i install its drivers for ubuntu? | 14:13 |
| Guker | hello everyone~ | 14:13 |
| usr13 | red22: Burn the ISO to CD and boot to it. | 14:13 |
| red22 | minas, it's like a 50 lb server-case-handmedown of a desktop too ;) | 14:13 |
| usr13 | red22: or to USB stick. | 14:13 |
| mank319 | well for some reason | 14:15 |
| mank319 | this time it worked out | 14:15 |
| mank319 | strange | 14:15 |
| red22 | usr13: I have it on usb stick and I booted from it... And while some web pages says there should be an option to "upgrade to 13.04" somewhere.. I just get the regular clean install options or custom install via format/partition/etc... What am I not seeing or doing wrong? | 14:15 |
| fyksen | I have just installed Ubuntu 13.04. And I can't change the mouse sensitivity. In the "mouse settings" I only got the doubbletap optoin. Here is my mouse setting screen. (in norwegian) http://imgur.com/2yJWD5I | 14:15 |
| mank319 | maybe because of the already existand bootloader | 14:16 |
| mank319 | well | 14:16 |

| MonkeyDust | fyksen oh, that simply brings you to Mouse & Touchpad | 14:19 |
| fyksen | MonkeyDust, Yeah.. It didn't work :/ | 14:19 |
| MonkeyDust | fyksen dconf-editor has mouse settings, too | 14:20 |
| fyksen | MonkeyDust, Where in it? | 14:20 |
| red22 | usr13, minas: any way to add the iso as a local repo for ubuntu software with a higher priority than the online repos? Then after maybe I can just do the regular update/upgrade procedure.. | 14:21 |
| lomo7 | how can i install drivers for ubuntu? sorry for noob q... | 14:22 |
| MonkeyDust | fyksen mousekeys-accel-time, in dconf | 14:22 |
| lomo7 | i have asrock 970 | 14:22 |
| MonkeyDust | fyksen dconf-editor, click 'Find' and look for mouse | 14:22 |
| red22 | usr13, minas: the "software sources" settings window says "to install from a cd-rom or dvd, insert the medium into the drive" but no option to select an image from a file... Maybe somehow I can mount the iso as a fake cd so that "software sources" can use the iso? | 14:23 |
| fyksen | MonkeyDust, thanks. Found it! Is accel time the acceleration? | 14:23 |
| fyksen | MonkeyDust, okey, I can see that it is the acceleration. But where to set the sensitivity? :) | 14:25 |

| szekelya | Hi. I bought an Asus U32U-RX400D laptop with 4GB ram to my daughter. I installed 32 bit ubuntu. Will it make a significant difference if I reinstall with the 64 bit version? | 15:04 |
| Bostoman | szekelya, you won't notice any difference | 15:04 |
| BluesKaj_ | szekelya, no | 15:04 |
| thubtumbing | szekelya, I wouldn't even recommend it, most applications still are best in a 32bit environment | 15:06 |
| szekelya | For sure it won't have to addres over 4GB memory. I thought the processor would perform double amount of tasks, but that might be a misbelief. | 15:06 |
| Bostoman | szekelya, that's indeed a misbelief | 15:07 |
| Bostoman | 32bit is fine | 15:07 |
| szekelya | OK, thanks, I wouldn't bother. | 15:07 |
| OerHeks | szekelya, i would say it runs faster. | 15:08 |
| dank101 | Welp | 15:08 |
| szekelya | BTW during the normal instllation, and the automatically offered updates, do I get a generic video driver? Do I have to search for a video driver manually for the specific video card? | 15:08 |
| dank101 | i can't find the Additional drivers tab in Settings | 15:08 |
| szekelya | OerHeks: if it is somewhat faster, but most applications are most stable with their 32 bit version, I wouldn't bother reinstalling. If it is clearly doubling the speed, I consider. | 15:10 |
| dank101 | Anyone? | 15:10 |
| OerHeks | dank101, it is in software propertys > http://www.webupd8.org/2012/07/a-new-interface-for-handling-third.html | 15:11 |
| dank101 | OerHeks, It shows nothing under that tab | 15:12 |

| lorddune | Hello, can someone please help me with a problem with Tiger. Specifically, /usr/lib/tiger/systems/Linux/2/deb_checkmd5sums | 15:29 |
| lorddune | i discovered this process is a security check that runs every night at 1 am, and it is overheating my processor as well as constantly making my hard drive run. | 15:29 |
| lorddune | can anyone explain why this is happening and suggest a possible solution? | 15:29 |
| dank101 | lorddune, thats pretty silly | 15:29 |
| dank101 | it's linux after all | 15:29 |
| lorddune | dank101: and why is that silly? | 15:29 |
| ipotato | 12.10 worked fine for me, but with 13.04 I get repeating patterns or colored pixels at the top of the screen. So the desktop is loading but I can't see or do anything | 15:30 |
| dank101 | ipotato, what Grapics card | 15:30 |
| lorddune | dank101: you do not have to answer a question with a SMART-ASS remark, dank101 | 15:30 |
| Cantide | oooh, now i see, dank101 :) thanks :) | 15:31 |
| dank101 | lorddune, it wasn't... please be nice | 15:31 |
| lorddune | this is a serious problem I am having, and Tiger is a process of auditing files / security that is built into the Linux kernal | 15:31 |
| vilgax | why ubuntu added gnome-contact in 13.04? its almost useless to the point that i can't delete contact i have added. | 15:31 |
| ipotato | it's an ivy bridge integrated card pentium g2020 | 15:31 |
| dank101 | ipotato, i think installing the intel drivers which i think just came out should fix it | 15:31 |

| betrayd | JasonGriffee: how old is that page, are you positive you still need ndiswrapper | 16:03 |
| johnjohn1011 | UKBeastieGirl: linux doesn't have the concept of drives like windows. what the mount command does is to make the ntfs drive look like a folder. | 16:03 |

| dank101-welp | and ccsm won't let me | 16:04 |
| nyuszika7h | dank101-welp: you should install Bumblebee then run OpenGL apps with optirun / primusrun | 16:04 |
| Gnea | it's "paid" not "payed", and the optimus is a special variant that the standard driver doesn't support | 16:05 |
| Bostoman | not familiar with tiger... | 16:05 |
| dank101-welp | Gnea, i have a optimus? | 16:05 |
| Bostoman | but it could indeed be something scheduled inside the tiger service | 16:05 |
| Bostoman | but then I guess you need to be able to configure it | 16:05 |
| Gnea | dank101-welp: it should be spelled out in the documentation that dell sent | 16:05 |
| BluesKaj_ | lomo7, install mesa-utils , then open a terminal and copy and paste this into it , glxinfo | grep OpenGL , then paste here what the version string line is.from the resulting output . | 16:06 |
| dank101-welp | Gnea i don't have one | 16:06 |
| Gnea | dank101-welp: they didn't send documentation? | 16:06 |

| betrayd | JasonGriffee: also have ndisgtk? | 16:06 |
| dank101-welp | Gnea no, it's not a optimus | 16:06 |
| Gnea | dank101-welp: okay, what's the service tag? | 16:06 |
| dank101-welp | it's compiz being a conflicting b**ch | 16:06 |

| Gnea | dank101-welp: that's because you're not answering my questions, getting too frustrated | 16:09 |
| JasonGriffee | no, terminal | 16:09 |
| betrayd | JasonGriffee: he may have moved it already | 16:09 |
| dank101-welp | when i enable stuff in ccsm it disables it | 16:09 |
| johnjohn1011 | dank101-welp: if something won't save, it could be a permissions issue. can you run ccsm as root maybe? | 16:09 |
| shocker | guys, im new to linux.. is there any way to overclock my cpu within linux.. im using ubuntu 13.04 | 16:09 |
| lorddune | Bostoman: in the daily cron there is the following: 0anacron, apport, apt, bsdmainutils, chlrootkit, debtags, dpkg, google-chrome, google-earth, logrotate, man-db, mlocate, ntp, passwd, popularity-contest, samba, standard, update-notifier-common and .placeholder | 16:09 |
| betrayd | JasonGriffee: but ndisgtk registers no complaints, try that comand in terminal without & | 16:10 |
| Gnea | dank101-welp: well as I said, I don't care about ccsm. It has nothing to do with the actual problem. | 16:10 |
| OerHeks | dank101-welp, me too thinks you have optimus. | 16:10 |
| dank101-welp | johnjohn1011 yes | 16:10 |
| nyuszika7h | Current status: 227 updates [+227], 2054 new [+179]. | 16:10 |
| yoojin | nvidia-319 broke my installation, If somebody knows how I can roll back to an earlier version, reinstall and wipe any graphics related configurations files, that would make me very grateful. | 16:10 |
| nyuszika7h | err | 16:10 |
| nyuszika7h | E: I wasn't able to locate a file for the base-files package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package. | 16:10 |
| nyuszika7h | E: Internal error: couldn't generate list of packages to download | 16:10 |
| dank101-welp | K | 16:11 |
| dank101-welp | i fixed it | 16:11 |
| JasonGriffee | betrayd: what command | 16:11 |
| Bostoman | lorddune, what is in /etc/crontab ? | 16:11 |
| betrayd | JasonGriffee: ndisgtk in a terminal | 16:11 |
| johnjohn1011 | dank101-welp: what did you do? | 16:11 |
| dank101-welp | reseting compiz settings and enabling what i needed fixed it | 16:11 |
| Gnea | dank101-welp: http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-GT-550M.42264.0.html <-- your card supports optimus | 16:11 |
| betrayd | JasonGriffee: so we can look at messages from it | 16:11 |
| Gnea | dank101-welp: good. | 16:11 |
| JasonGriffee | pops-up, no error | 16:12 |
| Gnea | so the driver was fine, but you decided to skip that part and went onto compiz | 16:12 |
| momin90909 | I would like to get GUI on VPS, how can I do it | 16:12 |
| betrayd | JasonGriffee: is the window still there, see what it says when you pick 'install ndiswrapper' | 16:13 |
| lorddune | Bostoman: that folder does not exist as far as I can tell | 16:13 |
| lorddune | Bostoman: erm directory rather | 16:13 |
| Bostoman | it's a file | 16:13 |
| Bostoman | so try sudo cat /etc/crontab | 16:14 |
| JasonGriffee | betrayd: ndiswrapper-common? | 16:14 |
| === Guest83648 is now known as g0th | ||

| pmantis | Hi guys. I upgrade my desktop with an ATI video card from 12.10 to 13.04. Then had low graphics mode. Tried to reset Xorg (delete config, reboot). I have a graphical session now, but unity won't load. No menu, no window decorations, etc. Ideas? | 16:16 |
| lomo7 | BluesKaj_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5609009/ | 16:17 |
| Bostoman | lorddune, hmmmmm I think you need to look in tiger's configuration somewhere | 16:17 |
| Gnea | vic: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto/Huawei | 16:17 |
| betrayd | JasonGriffee: -common, -utils, and ndisgtk | 16:17 |
| padhu | pmantis: try with stable version driver | 16:17 |
| vic | Gnea: checking | 16:18 |
| pmantis | padhu, I've removed the ATI card now, and back to Intel on-board for now. Reinstalling the ATI drivers failed on DKMS. | 16:18 |
| === DocGrooveAway is now known as DocGroove | ||
| JasonGriffee | betrayd: -common is newest version -utils was replaced by common, ndisgtk is installed. | 16:19 |
| * pmantis should have uninstalled theATI drivers prior to upgrade.. Can't uninstall, the uninstallation fails with a "files changed since installation" message. | 16:20 | |
| vic | Gnea: that link dont have the information i need | 16:20 |
| betrayd | JasonGriffee: so run ndisgtk in a terminal and pick install common fomr it, we can monitor its progress on both the window and terminal | 16:20 |
| JasonGriffee | betrayd: what are you talking about? | 16:21 |
| dank101-welp | i'm going to reboot | 16:21 |
| dank101-welp | and if these drivers don't work | 16:21 |
| dank101-welp | i will kill something | 16:21 |
| Bostoman | dinner time | 16:21 |
| betrayd | JasonGriffee: u asked earlier betrayd: ndiswrapper-common? | 16:22 |
| BluesKaj_ | lomo7, I'm not sure then which ati driver you need , perhaps someone with an ati card or more ati experience can help you , I have to leave , so good luck. | 16:22 |
| JasonGriffee | betrayd: I tryed installing that, said had latest version. | 16:23 |

| thubtumbing | bitdealer, so you can't install opencl? or does it do strange things? | 16:29 |
| auronandace | !lamp | walter_ | 16:29 |
| ubottu | walter_: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process. | 16:29 |

| thubtumbing | tell me when you got there | 16:42 |

| ahalverson | johnjohn: dont know, i liked workspaces as well | 16:49 |
| melvster1 | but 80% of users tend to use the default setting so it's an important change | 16:49 |

| ravigehlot | I have got PulseAudio installed. I can play audio from the console using aplay. However, on Xorg, I can't hear anything even though videos plays and the sound bar moves up and down. | 16:53 |
| ahalverson | run "alsamixer" in terminal | 16:54 |
| ravigehlot | I did | 16:54 |
| red22 | I have 12.10 installed and the 13.04 desktop iso saved on my machine... Anyone know how I can make update/upgrades use that local iso to save download time please? | 16:54 |

| ahalverson | burn to disk and upgrade off of it | 16:54 |
| ravigehlot | It plays music through the console | 16:55 |
| ravigehlot | not problems | 16:55 |
| ravigehlot | no* | 16:55 |

| wisey | roklykthat :: my PowerBook G4 is not usb-bootable because the guy who wrote Open Firmware told my technician personally. But I have a desktop pc with BIOS that would probably be usb-bootable. | 16:55 |

| ahalverson | ioubuntu: whats your card | 16:56 |

| ioubuntu | ahalverson: ati hd 4350 | 16:56 |
| ahalverson | ioubuntu: checked additional drivers? | 16:56 |
| red22 | ahalverson, I don't have any blank ones on me so I tried booting via usb (but no option to upgrade via that) so then I'm now trying to use the img as a source directly... | 16:57 |
| ioubuntu | well, the problem is that i am in ubuntu 13.04 using unity. is not that i liked it, i tried to get to Hardware Drivers but i can't find it. though even if i know it should appear itself to tell me that some drivers are available | 16:57 |
| ioubuntu | nothing happens | 16:57 |
| asdf___ | hi | 16:57 |

| ioubuntu | ahalverson: well, sometimes the screen flickers for like a milisecond. that looks like not updated drivers | 16:59 |
| red22 | ahalverson, any reason why it all would work via cd and not via an img? Could we fool the machine into seeing the img file as a cd/dvd? I see that the software sources window allows you to add a cd/dvd as an official source for ubuntu but not a folder or img :/ | 16:59 |
| ioubuntu | ahalverson: i want to check to see if i am right | 16:59 |

| ahalverson | brb | 17:02 |
| red22 | ahalverson, will brb lemme search for that.. I just used bash commands to mount the iso as recommended on several forums, but maybe easier with a program made for it, true. Will let you know, thanks. | 17:02 |
| gabrielk | hi guys. Just installed lubuntu 12.04 on an old laptop. I'm wondering why version 13 doesn't show up in the update manager? I only got version 12.10 to show up, even though I set the options to show latest version instantly...? | 17:03 |
| ahalverson | ioubuntu: got to go, hope i was of assistance | 17:03 |

| rasha666 | hi, i need help. After upgrading my ubuntu 12.10 on 13.04 it started making problems with wireless. It hardly ever connects to router, and when i do. it lasts less then 1 minute | 17:04 |
| DJones | gabrielk: You can't upgrade from 12.04 to 13.04 directly, you have to go through 12.10 first | 17:04 |
| Aww | gabrielk, You have to update to 12.10 before you can update to 13.04 | 17:04 |
| asdf___ | yes | 17:04 |
| SonikkuAmerica | gabrielk: (There's a #lubuntu channel) That's because you can only upgrade to the next version at a time. | 17:04 |

| gabrielk | ah thanks guys. I was suspecting that MIGHT be the case :) Currently upgrading to 12.10. Thanks! :) | 17:04 |

| Dr_willis | if you want the latest vbersions of packages.. go with the latest release. and use ppas for stuff you need updated | 17:45 |
| OerHeks | iBelieve, there is a max of 4 primairy possible on 1 hdd, but you can make one extended partition, that can have more partitions if you need it. | 17:45 |
| excelsio1 | I have it ready to go, I'll have to download teh 13.04... | 17:46 |
| iBelieve | betrayd, Dr_willis: thanks. | 17:46 |
| goonface | 13.04 is it good | 17:46 |
| excelsio1 | If no diff, I'll just install the 12, and upgrade to 13 and stay on the upgrade. | 17:46 |
| Kion | is there a ppa for libreoffice? | 17:46 |
| excelsio1 | If there's a difference, i'll download first. | 17:46 |
| ahalverson | goonface: yeah, though not as great as i expected | 17:46 |
| excelsio1 | Please advise | 17:46 |
| Dr_willis | excelsio1, if its a new clean install.. theres no point in installing an older release then upgradeing | 17:47 |
| kristof | I hoped to connect my laptop to the TV set with a VGA cable and simply change screens (as I'd do with a projector screen), but this doesn't seem to work. A google search was also fruitless. What am I forgetting, or what should I've done first? | 17:47 |
| Dr_willis | excelsio1, it will take 3x as long to get installed that way | 17:47 |
| excelsio1 | ok, I'll download the 13.04 install | 17:47 |
| chaotix | goonface, 13.04 was too buggy for me, so i downgraded, but others say they like it | 17:47 |
| Dr_willis | torrents for 13.04 should be blazeing fast right now | 17:47 |
| iBelieve | OerHeks: So should I put the two linux distros on two primaries, and then data and swap on logical? Or put data on primary and everything else on logical partitions? | 17:47 |
| excelsio1 | thanks for the advice. I just never upgrade when the LTS comes out. | 17:47 |
| Dr_willis | iBelieve, it really dosent matter much | 17:47 |
| excelsio1 | I've been meaning to for a year now. | 17:48 |
| excelsio1 | backing up my home dir, and going for it. Thanks! | 17:48 |

| doebi | why does ubuntu block the usage of tlmgr in latex packages? | 17:56 |

| Dr_willis | Sagitt, you want to use the unity desktop? or somthing lighter? | 17:56 |
| SonikkuAmerica | (That factoid needs changing to say Unity instead of GNOME.) | 17:56 |
| milessabin | ahalverson: I don't have any usb 2.0 ports on this machine. | 17:56 |

| SonikkuAmerica | Sagitt: That might be a bit hard to roll out. | 17:57 |
| Dr_willis | Sagitt, theres no longer a Unity-2d as of 12.10+ | 17:57 |

| ahalverson | milessabin: but how would you connect the hub other than to the 3.0 port | 17:58 |
| Dr_willis | Sagitt, lubuntu is ubuntu with a differnt desktop. You can easially install the xubuntu-desktop or lubuntu-desktop package on top of ubuntu and use that desktop | 17:59 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Sagitt: So is Kubuntu. | 17:59 |
| Sagitt | well so i can install xubuntu desktop on this intallation right? | 17:59 |
| celso | Dr_willis : would that bring stability to unity? | 17:59 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Sagitt: [ sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop ] | 17:59 |

| SonikkuAmerica | Yep | 18:00 |
| celso | Dr_willis : would that bring (my mistake) instability to unity? | 18:00 |
| Dr_willis | celso, You wouldent be using unity if you used the subuntu desktop | 18:00 |
| ahalverson | milessabin: sorry gtg, hope you figure it out | 18:00 |
| Dr_willis | you select whatever desktop you want at the login screen | 18:00 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Sagitt: Except it might double-pull, so you'll have 2 file managers, 2 disc burners, etc. | 18:00 |
| Sagitt | no disk space problems | 18:00 |
| Sagitt | is a netbook | 18:00 |
| Sagitt | is only for tests and other | 18:01 |
| milessabin | ahalverson: I'm assuming that by passing through a USB 2.0 hub both the scanner and the laptop would operate in USB 2.0 mode (ie. using the ehci-pci kernel driver) | 18:01 |

| SonikkuAmerica | LibreOffice REALLY needs a Unity indicator. So does Chromium. | 18:03 |
| Dr_willis | an indcator to do what? | 18:03 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Dr_willis: What the old systray applets did, of course. | 18:03 |
| thubtumbing | doebi, what do you need for packages? | 18:04 |
| Dr_willis | SonikkuAmerica, and that was? | 18:04 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Dr_willis: The Chromium systray applet managed Chromium offline, and the LibreOffice quickstarter let you do everything LibreOffice's splash screen did from the systray. | 18:04 |
| doebi | i am installing latex on a system with limited disk space and only want to install the packages i rly need | 18:05 |
| thubtumbing | ok | 18:05 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Dr_willis: <Chromium> As well as Chrome Extensions. | 18:05 |
| varun | milessabin, by personal experience I can tell you that the USB3 hub will always be handled by xhci driver, doesn't matter whether the connected device is USB2 or USB3 | 18:05 |
| doebi | so i started with a plain install and tried to manually install using tlmgr | 18:05 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Dr_willis: Such as Chat for Google. | 18:05 |
| harris | Dr_willis, it mono installed so i ran the wine command same error | 18:05 |
| Dr_willis | theres generic indicator-applets written in python if you just want a fancy launcher cluttering up your systray | 18:05 |
| doebi | but fucking ubuntu doesnt want me to use tlmgr | 18:05 |
| thubtumbing | i don't know tlmgr | 18:05 |
| doebi | tlmgr is latex own package manager | 18:06 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Dr_willis: Oh. Where? I could run a search in Synaptic or Software Center... | 18:06 |
| thubtumbing | you can add packages in the command line | 18:06 |
| goonface | Boot ubuntu in classic and install dock | 18:06 |
| doebi | maybe i can intsll same packages using apt-get but using different name conventions whcih arent documented anywhere | 18:06 |
| thubtumbing | for example: sudo apt-get install texlive-lang-hebrew | 18:06 |
| Dr_willis | SonikkuAmerica, right click on the icon in the unity panel. and check out the quicklists feature... you CAN add custom entrys to the right click - quicklist listing also | 18:06 |

| doebi | thubtumbing: i know but as i just said, i dont know the names ubuntu uses | 18:06 |
| milessabin | varun: the port itself is fine ... I can use other USB 2.0 and 3.0 devices on it without problem. It seems to be specifically a combination of USB 3.0 and that device. The device itself works fine on a different machine in a USB 2.0 port. Don't you think an intermediary USB 2.0 hub might help in that case? | 18:07 |
| doebi | for example i want o instal latex package "listings" | 18:07 |
| Dr_willis | harris, wine help is best done in #winehq | 18:07 |
| celso | Should i install "lubuntu-core" or "Lubuntu-Desktop"? But i dont want the lubuntu aps. Only the window manager | 18:07 |
| harris | can you send my issue there so i dont have to start over | 18:07 |
| Dr_willis | I always install the desktop packages.. since i want it all. | 18:08 |
| Dr_willis | just the -core may not be confiured the same as a full -desktop install | 18:08 |

But in my case, the hub +modem has problems with USB2 port as well, so am not sure about your scenario. The only thing I'm sure is that the connection will still pass through xhci driver | 18:10 |
| hipster | hm ok looks like it's php5-fpm. No idea why normal php5 package comes with that bloatware Apache, but whatever. Thanks :p | 18:10 |
| Flannel | hipster: No. That includes php5 without any webserver support ("that bloatware") | 18:10 |
| thubtumbing | can you tell me what package listings does? or in what "latex-package" it is normally? | 18:11 |
| hipster | Flannel, webserver support != complete webserver | 18:11 |
| Flannel | hipster: apache is the default webserver for ubuntu, that's why. But once you install php5-fpm, you can install 'php5' and it won't install extra stuff. That's how packages work. If you don't specify, you get defaults. | 18:11 |

| doebi | Flannel: pip is a package management tool for python, and guess what. IT WORKS in ubunut! | 18:27 |
| dingle | i just upgraded to 13.04, now i have no sound on my hdmi output. how do i fix this? | 18:27 |
| wilee-nilee | !details | jp_hranice this bot info helps | 18:28 |
| ubottu | jp_hranice this bot info helps: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 18:28 |
| thubtumbing | oh congrats doebi | 18:28 |
| dingle | at the first reboot no sound worked, i did a cold boot and now at least the laptop sound works but still no hdmi | 18:28 |
| Flannel | doebi: That's just how the LaTeX guys in Ubuntu decided to do it. Otherwise you have dozens of "package managements" for their own domains, and you can't keep track of things globally. | 18:29 |
| jordan4ibanez | Hello again, I have set the CTRL+ALT+DELETE in the keyboard shortcuts to run a command, yet when I do the key combination, it doesn't run the command, would there be any issue why? | 18:29 |
| doebi | stupid devs | 18:30 |
| Flannel | doebi: pip does perl, not python, and it installs things to /usr/local/ which is effectively what you'd be doing with the LaTeX things. | 18:30 |
| doebi | i dont understand why apt groups the packages up, instead of using the package names from latex | 18:30 |
| doebi | pip is python | 18:30 |
| Flannel | doebi: http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/pip pip is perl. | 18:31 |
| Flannel | If you're using it for python... good luck to you :) | 18:31 |
| thubtumbing | http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/man1/pip.1.html | 18:31 |
| doebi | Flannel: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pip | 18:31 |
| thubtumbing | euhm whatever pip is, can one install latex packages with it? | 18:32 |
| thubtumbing | cause i seriously doubt that | 18:32 |
| doebi | thubtumbing: no it cant thats not what i meant. | 18:33 |
| doebi | i just said it works, besides apt, why tlmgr not? | 18:33 |
| thubtumbing | oh | 18:33 |
| deadweasel | FYI -- If people ask about popping/clicking sounds in flash player chrome (ubuntu 12.04), do about:plugins, select details, disable the PPAPI (out-of-process) | 18:34 |

| varun | milessabin, did you try a usb2 hub? | 18:34 |
| deadweasel | no more popping / clicking in videos/music served via chrome. | 18:34 |
| milessabin | varun: yes, and as you suggested, it didn't help | 18:35 |
| jp_hranice | wilee-nilee: OK. I try some. My problem occured in functinality of dash itself. I use actual Ubuntu 13.04 Raring Rightal Czech tranlation.

| lomo7_ | do i need to set IOMMU to enable (bios) in order to use multiple gpu's? | 18:40 |
| kr_ous | Hi all | 18:40 |
| mzhang | Question: can I extend a jfs partition at its beginning (once I made that portion freed up)? Thanks. | 18:40 |
| SonikkuAmerica | goonface: And? I have no problems with either one. | 18:40 |
| Jordan_U | mzhang: Usually no (outside moving the entire partition bit by bit, then adding to the end). | 18:40 |
| Jordan_U | mzhang: What is your end goal? | 18:40 |
| varun | milessabin, yes, the bug tracker may be a better place for this. It's just that some of us are more used to forum threads.. | 18:40 |
| wilee-nilee | jp_hranice, Cool that is a better explanation for the channel in general, I don't use unity so am not really able to give specifics, personally I have two android devices, a smart phone and a nexus 7, for weather info. In ubuntu I just use the browser. | 18:40 |

| excelsior | Are we still using unetbootin to set up thumbdrives for installing ubuntu? I downloaded the 13.04 iso, but unetbootin didn't recognize it, so I tried to remove and reinstall it, but unetbootin won't install now from the repos. | 18:41 |
| goonface | SonikkuAmerica: chrome does not support gpu acceleration FACT | 18:41 |
| jp_hranice | wilee-nilee: :-) | 18:41 |
| mzhang | Jordan_U: right now I have boot, swap, root and home partitions (4 primaries), home is jfs, I may be buying a SSD and put the first 3 over there, and use the full drive as home instead. | 18:41 |
| thubtumbing | excelsior, use usb-creator-gtk | 18:42 |
| dingle | i found out its a kernel bug, how lame. | 18:42 |
| goonface | Chrome does not support GPU flash acceleration. | 18:42 |
| kr_ous | I have a problem to upgrade my ubuntu to 13.04, it says | 18:42 |
| kr_ous | Unable to start the upgrade | 18:42 |
| kr_ous | This is usually due to a system or / tmp is mounted noexec. Please go back without noexec and update again. | 18:42 |
| thubtumbing | or use the dash and search for "startup disk creator" | 18:42 |
| milessabin | varun: I'm afraid I'm old-fashioned ... mailing lists and bugtrackers for me ;-) But it does look like ubuntuforums is where a lot of the activity is and the mailing lists seem surprisingly (to me) quiet. Is that the normal state of affairs? | 18:42 |
| SonikkuAmerica | goonface: It doesn't tell you whether or not the video accel is HW or SW | 18:42 |
| lomo7_ | do i need to set IOMMU to enable (bios) in order to use multiple gpu's? | 18:42 |
| SonikkuAmerica | goonface: It tells you the decoding medium though. | 18:42 |
| excelsior | thubtumbing: thanks, I have it! can you point me to the commands for it? | 18:43 |
| excelsior | and will it wipe my thumbdrive? | 18:43 |
| thubtumbing | not if you don't tell it to | 18:43 |
| excelsior | cool | 18:43 |
| kr_ous | and I have /tmp on the same disk with the permissions set to 777 for /tmp | 18:43 |
| excelsior | I already have a 12.04 on the thumbdrive and I want to overwrite it. | 18:43 |
| mzhang | Jordan_U: if this is not something doable, then shall I set home partition as maybe ext4 or ntfs instead? | 18:43 |
| dingle | whats an easy way to fall back to a working 13.04 kernel? the latest one is baked. | 18:44 |
| excelsior | but I also have other things I don't want overwritten | 18:44 |
| goonface | SonikkuAmerica: google it. Chrome PEPPER FLASH in linux does not support GPU acceleration. | 18:44 |
| excelsior | Anyhow, can you point me at the commands? | 18:44 |
| thubtumbing | to be sure i'd guess copy those files to another medium | 18:45 |
| excelsior | ok, | 18:45 |
| excelsior | thx | 18:45 |
| varun | milessabin, I believe the reason is that the bug tracker contains only issues which have been identified as bugs, while the forums are for any kind of technical support, including bugs. Of course it is non official and usually the devs don't look in there. | 18:45 |
| kr_ous | hey can u find a solution for my problem ?? | 18:45 |
| taime1 | Why cant ubuntu see my screen's native resolution? | 18:46 |
| SonikkuAmerica | goonface: The submitter of that bug branch in Chroium realized he made a mistake when he reported it: "Sorry, I should've reviewed this issue before I posted. There is no hardware video decoding." | 18:46 |
| milessabin | varun: OK. thanks | 18:46 |
| goonface | SonikkuAmerica: chromuim can use gpu acceleration if you set its hidden settings to use firefox flash | 18:46 |
| jordan4ibanez | Oh in todays update you can drop desktop launchers into the unity launcher? Cool! | 18:46 |
| SonikkuAmerica | goonface: *Chromium | 18:47 |
| SonikkuAmerica | goonface: Did you read what I said? | 18:47 |
| asdasd | hello | 18:47 |
| goonface | SonikkuAmerica: yes | 18:48 |
| przemek | hie everyone | 18:48 |
| SonikkuAmerica | goonface: The issue isn't acceleration, it's the decoder. | 18:48 |
| jordan4ibanez | Never thought I'd easily be able to put TF2 into the unity launcher without weird work arounds. :3 | 18:48 |
| goonface | SonikkuAmerica: on slower pc its big problem | 18:49 |
| SonikkuAmerica | goonface: So use Chromium instead (it uses the flashplugin-installer) if you want the HW decoder. Problem solved. | 18:49 |
| Jordan_U | mzhang: Definitely not ntfs, but ext4 is a good choice. | 18:50 |
| === rahul is now known as Guest14165 | ||
| goonface | SonikkuAmerica: flash stoped upgrading standard flash but chrome uses its own newer version with no GPU acceleration | 18:51 |
| === DocGrooveAway is now known as DocGroove | ||
| SonikkuAmerica | goonface: You're missing my point. No hardware involvement whatsoever. | 18:52 |
| mzhang | Jordan_U: I threw out ntfs out of frustration... so you can dynamically resize ext4 both ways amd at both ends? | 18:53 |
| goonface | SonikkuAmerica: whatever its still not using GPU | 18:53 |
| thubtumbing | SonikkuAmerica, i think he just wants to shine, see this private "conversation" | 18:53 |

| SonikkuAmerica | thubtumbing: Bad idea to paste a multi-line text. | 18:54 |
| thubtumbing | yea stupid me ;) | 18:54 |
| Jordan_U | malkauns: No, I don't know of any filesystem that you can resize by adding space to the beginning. I though you meant more along the lines of "If I'm going to create a new filesystem anyway, I might as well go with ext4". | 18:54 |
| thubtumbing | it's been more than a decade since i've been on irc | 18:54 |
| SonikkuAmerica | thubtumbing: It's called flooding. And that proves absolutely nothing. If sever trolling occurs we have the !ops command. | 18:54 |
| SonikkuAmerica | *severe | 18:54 |
| thubtumbing | I'm sorry SonikkuAmerica, won't do it again | 18:55 |

| mzhang | Jordan_U: what about xfs vs. ext4? | 18:56 |
| thubtumbing | yes excelsior sometimes it doesn't go that fast | 18:56 |
| thubtumbing | often i reformat my usb | 18:56 |
| excelsior | ok, so its normal | 18:56 |
| thubtumbing | i wouldn't say "normal" ;) | 18:57 |
| Jordan_U | mzhang: In my opinion, if you don't have a compelling reason to use another filesystem it's best to stick with ext4. | 18:57 |
| excelsior | It just seemed to be going too fast, then it seemed to stop. | 18:57 |
| jordan4ibanez | Does anyone know how to catagorize different launchers into sub launchers? Or has unity not gotten that advanced yet? :o | 18:57 |
| excelsior | Swett, I guess it's installing the bootloader now, because I just had to permission it. | 18:57 |
| excelsior | sweet, I mean | 18:58 |
| thubtumbing | yes that's wright | 18:58 |
| excelsior | lol | 18:58 |
| thubtumbing | you'll be on your way soon | 18:58 |
| mzhang | Jordan_U: ok thanks... just to make sure that I can resize ext4 at both ends of the partition, increase or decrease? | 18:58 |
| zetheroo | how do I enable dual-pane in the file browser of 13.04? | 18:58 |

| excelsior | anyone know where tomboy notes are backed up? | 19:00 |
| goonface- | I am really tired of the games | 19:00 |
| Jordan_U | mzhang: Use GParted which will first move the entire partition "to the left" then resize it "to the right", which will take a *long* time, and a lot of IO. | 19:00 |

| === ubuntu is now known as Guest65194 | ||
| goonface- | petoo: sounds bad | 19:05 |
| mzhang | Jordan_U: thanks. then no real difference between jfs and ext4 in that regard, but I understand ext4 is preferred by linux. Probably doesn't make a difference in a home NAS server. | 19:05 |

| thubtumbing | petoo, guest account files aren't saved if i'm correct | 19:11 |
| Jordan_U | waperboy: Journaling doesn't add enough writes to actually decrease the lifespan of an SSD in any meaningful amount. | 19:11 |
| catface | Wow they are so | 19:11 |
| petoo | Yes, they are not. | 19:11 |
| petoo | But I was accessing another drive, for some reason. | 19:11 |
| petoo | Now I am logged in through my regular account, and I dont see it here. | 19:12 |
| Dr_willis | petoo, look at the output of the 'mount' command. see whats mounted where. | 19:12 |
| catface | Journaling is not needed with ssf | 19:12 |
| catface | Ssd | 19:12 |
| petoo | It's easy to reboot and just forget about everything but I don't thing it's a good solution. | 19:12 |
| petoo | ok dr | 19:12 |
| Jordan_U | catface: That is an absurd statement. SSD or non SSD does not affect the usefulness of journaling. | 19:13 |
| Dr_willis | Jordan_U, i was just about to say that.. after i googled a site or two to back me up | 19:13 |
| wilee-nilee | taime1, In the terminal xrandr will give you possible resolutions and xrandr -s "resolution here" wil change it | 19:13 |
| taime1 | wilee-nilee: as i said, the correct resolution is not available | 19:14 |
| taime1 | xrandr doesnt list the tv's resolution | 19:14 |
| catface | Its like having journaling for memory. Its not needed for ssd | 19:14 |
| Jordan_U | waperboy: Dr_willis: Ted Tso (developer of ext3/4) making the case for using journaling with SSDs: http://tytso.livejournal.com/61830.html | 19:15 |
| taime1 | and i have tried adding it through xrandr. the furthest i can get is: using xrandr to add a new mode, it then shows up in the display properties, but then when it is chosen, nothing happens | 19:15 |
| Dr_willis | Jordan_U, i figured there was some articals out thee on it. ;) never saw any ssd tweak pages say to 'not' use journeling | 19:15 |

| danes | hello, how can I remove the gui and get back to terminal when I restart ubuntu server? I just want to get rid of the login and gui and have terminal available | 19:17 |
| wilee-nilee | danes, The gui is? | 19:18 |
| petoo | the partition is vfat, but don't know which one. | 19:18 |
| Dr_willis | petoo, you got 2 filesystems mounted to /media/######## the # is the uuid of the filesystem. | 19:18 |
| danes | I did sudo apt-get uninstall ubuntu-desktop but did not work | 19:18 |
| danes | wilee-nilee: I mean the graphical interface | 19:18 |
| Dr_willis | petoo, and you got somting mounted to /windows also | 19:19 |
| wilee-nilee | danes, you need a complete package list to remove it and then it can be problematic possibly. | 19:19 |
| danes | I just want to get to the command prompt and nothing else | 19:19 |
| petoo | /windows is other partion , nothing wrong with it | 19:19 |
| wilee-nilee | danes, you can have a cli boot. | 19:19 |
| pztrick | danes: i've had luck finding lists for removing the ubuntu-desktop packages in guides for xfce4, xubuntu, etc | 19:20 |
| Dr_willis | petoo, you got a total of 3 mounted filesystmes that might be it. 2 are in /media/#### | 19:20 |

| NeedHelpWithBoot | I have windows 8 installed on my ssd, and I have 13.04 installed on an internal hdd. I unplugged the 8 drive during the ubuntu install. I've got grub to see the 8 drive after I plugged in and booted, but every time I try to go to 8, I get a "cannot find drive map" issue. | 19:29 |
| KI4RO | Dr_willis, after it boots | 19:30 |
| ActionParsnip | ki4ro: its a service, its like rdp in windows. nobody has to be logged in locally for it to work. | 19:30 |
| Dr_willis | KI4RO, if you have ssh setup as a SERVICE you can ssh into the box.. thats what a service does | 19:30 |
| * Dr_willis wonders how else one is logging into a remote system | 19:31 | |
| ActionParsnip | needhelpwithboot: if you run: sudo update-grub does it help? | 19:31 |
| KI4RO | Okay thanks guys...so it starts automatically before anyone goes through the login screen...cool! | 19:31 |
| ActionParsnip | kirro: yes at runlevel 3 (usually) | 19:31 |
| NeedHelpWithBoot | That is what I did to get 8 to show, but still drive map error. I also installed and ran boot-repair like I found on some page related to my issue, still the same problem. | 19:31 |

| NeedHelpWithBoot | Ha, so how would I go about figuring out who it is? I'm going to assume, you? | 19:39 |
| ActionParsnip | samweasley: just put it in the Unity panel and remove nautilus from the panel. Should be ok | 19:39 |

| Dr_willis | daddio_, you can select what desktop to load at the login screen. and if edubuntu changes that you can change the lightdm theme back | 19:46 |

| ActionParsnip | frankiej: check your firewall. it may be stopping the traffic | 20:22 |

| Dr_willis | punter, no idea. I dont have a single app that uses the system tray any more. they all use indicator applets | 20:22 |

| ActionParsnip | frank_: looks fine, just remove the install cd as a package source | 20:23 |
| Dr_willis | indicator applets replaced the old kuldgy system tray method.. its been several releases now that apps have had time to adopt to the new method. | 20:23 |

| ActionParsnip | ohioguy: hold SHIFT at boot and go to root recovery console, run: passwd name ,and set your password for your username | 20:24 |
| Dr_willis | punter, they got icons at the top right... you most likely have several indicator-applets allready running there | 20:24 |

Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit.

| Dr_willis | wizard_A, wubi is being phased out in the near future. its a good time to switch to a normal install | 20:31 |

| Dr_Willis | if i wanted a bigger card - id have to get a bigger power supply/ ;) | 21:08 |
| tannji | I almost wish Intel had bought Nvidia. almost..... | 21:08 |
| SonikkuAmerica | tannji: Because AMD bought out ATi? | 21:08 |
| davethenoob | That'd be terrible. Then there wouldn't be much competition in the graphics card industry. | 21:08 |
| cyrano_ | ActionParsnip: I'm on 12.04 precise | 21:08 |
| tannji | SonikkuAmerica: not quite, more so because Intel writes quality driver suites | 21:09 |
| Dr_Willis | not really much competition as it stands | 21:09 |
| ActionParsnip | cyrano_: try renaming the config folder for the browser and rerun it | 21:09 |
| davethenoob | True :\ | 21:09 |
| tannji | would have liked Intel to have bought out Creative as well | 21:09 |
| SonikkuAmerica | tannji: NO. NO. NOOOO!!!! | 21:09 |
| tannji | lmao | 21:10 |
| SonikkuAmerica | tannji: Not Creative Labs!!! | 21:10 |
| tannji | well, why not? | 21:10 |
| Dr_Willis | You dont hear much about Creative these days either | 21:10 |
| ActionParsnip | so not worth the headache | 21:10 |
| Meris | How can I limit the amount of system resources for desktop usage during file transfer to avoid slowing the system down to a crawl while transfering files at high speeds | 21:10 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Dr_Willis: True; however, Creative's devices are AWESOME. | 21:10 |
| tannji | the hardware is decent... but they havent written a good driver since ZP camre out | 21:10 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Dr_Willis: They are the SEGA of digital entertainment. | 21:11 |
| tannji | xp*** | 21:11 |
| ActionParsnip | meris: use a high nice value | 21:11 |

| tannji | lol | 21:11 |
| ActionParsnip | sonikkuamerica: there is a lot better than creative | 21:11 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Dr_Willis: Wellll... Linux support is rather lacking... | 21:11 |
| cyrano_ | ActionParsnip: well it's not crashing now | 21:11 |
| Meris | ActionParsnip, so I should renice the processes busy with filetransfer? | 21:11 |
| tannji | the soundcard I really miss was soundstorm on Nvidia's motherboard chipset | 21:12 |
| davethenoob | I'm going to be honest with you guys. I'm here to ask a question. I have an ancient printer. And it only has 32-bit drivers for Ubuntu 9.04 and 10.04.... But it also has it for Debian GNU/Linux 5.0 and Debian 6. Which one should I download? | 21:12 |
| ActionParsnip | meris: yrs. sonething like 15 will make it slower but take more of a backseat | 21:12 |
| Dr_Willis | davethenoob: its possible the drivers are allready in the repos | 21:12 |
| ActionParsnip | cyrano_: cool, it will rebuild the profile from the cloud | 21:13 |
| davethenoob | They're not,sadly. I try to add a printer. It recognized my printer, but it won't print anything | 21:13 |
| tannji | I would imagine that the repos would at least have a decent compatible driver for an old printer | 21:13 |

| Meris | ActionParsnip, yes, for command line use that would suffice, but not for GUI use, or would it? | 21:14 |
| Dr_Willis | dank101: optimus has 2 video chipsets normally an intel and nvidia - | 21:15 |
| ActionParsnip | dank101: optimus switches between the intel gpu in the cpu and nvidia as a cludge to save power | 21:15 |

| ubottu | Package tinyserver does not exist in raring | 21:25 |
| Dr_Willis | http://tinyserver.sourceforge.net/ | 21:26 |
| davethenoob | I tried using the PCL Laser Printer. It said it was printing, but the printer is idle. This doesn't make any sense to me, hahaha | 21:26 |
| Dr_Willis | oh windows. ;) | 21:26 |
| nethunter | tannji: I'm not using nVidia drivers at all, it's an AMD card. | 21:26 |
| ActionParsnip | meris: ahh, you could always share a folder in Ubuntu (or install openssh-server and use sftp) and pull the data instead of push | 21:26 |
| nethunter | signon-ui is using 100% CPU | 21:26 |
| vlt | Dr_Willis: Something I can easily install on a low end machine. | 21:26 |
| Dr_Willis | heres a web server with only 200 lines of C code.. i just googled.. | 21:26 |
| Dr_Willis | vlt: look in the repos perhaps? theres several http servers | 21:27 |
| scumbum | vlt: just use ftp | 21:27 |
| Dr_Willis | http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/systems/library/es-nweb/index.html | 21:27 |
| vlt | scumbum: The client wants HTTP | 21:27 |
| Meris | ActionParsnip, thanks for the suggestion, but both the source and destination are attached fysically to the same system. | 21:27 |
| Meris | ActionParsnip, fysically => physically | 21:28 |
| tannji | nethunter: do you have onboard graphics chipset in addition to your card? | 21:28 |
| nethunter | tannji: yeah | 21:28 |
| scumbum | vlt: abyss small web server | 21:28 |
| ActionParsnip | vlt: do you use dropbox? | 21:28 |
| vlt | ActionParsnip: No. | 21:29 |
| vlt | It's supposed to be locally, as in LAN | 21:29 |
| * Dr_Willis wonders if busybox has a web server feature.. it has everything else | 21:29 | |
| tannji | I would look into purging any drivers you are not using, and make sure the onboard is disabled in chipset. had some weird issues like that a while back | 21:29 |
| ActionParsnip | vlt: damn, you can make URLs out of files in your public folder and use it to give access to files | 21:29 |
| harris | how do i get wine tricks | 21:29 |
| vlt | I know I could install the full apache pkg but thought there was a smaller solution | 21:29 |
| daddidio | ActionParsnip: okay, got that, now how do i install them all? | 21:30 |
| esben | I have some trouble booting 13.04 after fresh install. With a 6450 radeon card i just get some odd graphics corruption and not even a tty to switch to.. Any tips? | 21:30 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: what is the output of: lsb_release -sc | 21:30 |
| harris | raring | 21:30 |
| Meris | harris, you can download winetricks from the author, you can find the link by looking for it on winehq.org, don't know by heart | 21:30 |
| ActionParsnip | daddio: cd to the folder in terminal and run: sudo dpkg -i *.deb | 21:30 |
| truexfan81 | who would i talk to about a problem with the boot-repair cd? | 21:31 |
| SonikkuAmerica | harris: winetricks is included in wine itself. | 21:31 |
| scumbum | vlt: set up small web server | 21:31 |
| Meris | SonikkuAmerica, not if you want the latsest edition. | 21:31 |
| Meris | SonikkuAmerica, not if you want the latest edition (sorry for the typo) | 21:31 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Tru dat | 21:31 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: http://wiki.winehq.org/winetricks | 21:32 |
| Dr_Willis | vlt: i know theres at least 2 http servers in the repos.. most likely more.. | 21:32 |
| === c0c0 is now known as poto | ||
| ActionParsnip | vlt: apache2 is a great http server | 21:32 |
| vlt | Dr_Willis: Found micro-httpd | 21:32 |

| Dr_Willis | willis@SSDBuntu:~$ apt-cache search http web server | 21:33 |
| Dr_Willis | found several | 21:33 |
| truexfan81 | i'm trying to make the thing install grub, its asking me to run 3 commands in terminal which start with sudo chroot, problem is every time i do the 2nd or 3rd command the terminal disappears | 21:33 |
| Meris | harris, some things in winetricks can only be installed through the command-line | 21:33 |
| renzom | hi all, i'm having a kernel-panic everytime i start my notebook after upgrading to 13.04 from 12.10...anyone having the same issue? any thoughts? | 21:34 |
| harris | so how do i install it | 21:34 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/precise/crossover-trial/ | 21:34 |
| Dr_Willis | truexfan81: what do you mean by dissapears.. | 21:34 |
| truexfan81 | Dr_Willis: i guess i mean it closes itself without warning | 21:34 |
| Dr_Willis | truexfan81: what command does that? | 21:34 |
| scumbum | vlt: how about lightpd | 21:35 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: use that link, may help | 21:35 |
| truexfan81 | gimme a min to write it down and then type it here, thats on a different machine | 21:35 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: or use apt-get | 21:35 |
| harris | so apt-get crossover | 21:36 |
| nethunter | tannji: thanks, I'll try that. | 21:37 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: no as crossover is not an option of apt-get | 21:37 |
| harris | then how do i install the trial | 21:37 |
| tannji | = ) | 21:37 |
| Dr_Willis | harris: 'sudo apt-get install THEPACKAGENAME' | 21:38 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: you will also need the exact package name to use, you cannot guess stuff | 21:38 |
| Meris | SonikkuAmerica, what do you need crossover for? | 21:38 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Meris: Wrong person. | 21:38 |
| Meris | SonikkuAmerica, sorry, was meant for harris | 21:38 |
| harris | me | 21:38 |
| Meris | SonikkuAmerica, my apologies. | 21:38 |
| RainbowW | help.ubuntu.com is hosed? that's not very helpful. | 21:39 |
| Dr_Willis | RainbowW: if you are asking 'is the site down for other people' .. that would be a helpfull question. | 21:40 |
| truexfan81 | Dr_Willis: 1. sudo chroot "/mnt/boot-sav/sda1" dpkg --configure -a | 21:40 |
| scumbum | Whats wrong with WINE | 21:40 |
| Dr_Willis | truexfan81: thats an incorrect command.. its 2 commands on one line | 21:40 |
| truexfan81 | Dr_Willis: it lists that as one line, irc may be wrapping it | 21:41 |
| Dr_Willis | truexfan81: do the chroot command, then onc eyou get a shell and do the dpkg command | 21:41 |
| Dr_Willis | truexfan81: its 2 COMMANDS on 2 seperate lines.. | 21:41 |
| Draxelis | new nautilus is bad | 21:41 |
| Meris | RainbowW, help.ubuntu.com doesn't load here, but it might have been moved to another URL? | 21:41 |
| scumbum | harris: whats wrong with WINEHQ | 21:41 |
| Draxelis | it's truly unpolished | 21:41 |
| ActionParsnip | rainboww: try now | 21:41 |
| truexfan81 | not in the gui, it only shows 3 commands, i'll make a pastebin the show you how it does it | 21:41 |
| Dr_Willis | got error 503 for help.ubuntu.cm | 21:42 |
| ActionParsnip | draxelis: then dont use it..... | 21:42 |
| harris | Meris, i need to install a exe | 21:42 |
| Meris | harris, and Wine doesn't cut it for the exe you are trying to install? | 21:42 |
| scumbum | harris: install WINETRICKS | 21:42 |
| harris | no | 21:42 |
| Draxelis | ActionParsnip, how? I just installed 13.04. Many problems with this new nautilus. Do you guys experience nautilus bugs as well? | 21:43 |
| harris | i did how do i install from exe | 21:43 |
| RainbowW | ActionParsnip, it answers but i still get broken links on images. but i can live with this. if you did something, thank you. | 21:43 |
| harris | un winetricks | 21:43 |
| Draxelis | it's super buggy | 21:43 |
| ActionParsnip | draxelis: there are plenty of file managers in the repos | 21:43 |
| scumbum | harris: whats the app | 21:43 |
| Aww | Draxelis, works perfectly for me | 21:43 |
| ActionParsnip | rainboww: didnt do anything | 21:43 |
| truexfan81 | Dr_Willis: the boot repair tool shows it just like this http://pastebin.com/wimgcjg2 | 21:43 |
| Draxelis | Aww, I can show you how to make it crash :)) | 21:43 |
| Aww | Draxelis, please show me | 21:44 |
| Meris | Draxelis, Nautilus is also buggy with me, but I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 here. | 21:44 |
| Aww | xD | 21:44 |
| Draxelis | it's to do with "make linkw" | 21:44 |
| ActionParsnip | draxelis: remeber, linux is about choice.....try pcmanfm. it rocks imho. or thunar or rox or dolphon or konqueror | 21:44 |
| ActionParsnip | draxelis: you dont have to use nautilus | 21:44 |
| scumbum | harris: after WINE installed right clicke exe | 21:45 |
| Draxelis | ActionParsnip, I like nautilus, but I'm just saying that the new one seems unpolished and I'm wondering if other people experience the same problems. | 21:45 |
| Dr_Willis | truexfan81: do it one command at a time. you chroot into the system. then try to fix things | 21:45 |
| Meris | ActionParsnip, PCManFM? Suffers from occasional massive file corruption during copy. No thanks. | 21:45 |
| Draxelis | Aww, give me a sec, I'll explain how to crash it :)) | 21:45 |
| Aww | Draxelis, okay :o | 21:45 |
| Meris | ActionParsnip, and that is a know bug. | 21:45 |
| truexfan81 | ok so everything after the "" i do as a separate command? | 21:45 |
| Dr_Willis | truexfan81: you really DONT need to chroot each time | 21:45 |
| Dr_Willis | chroot /whatever/sda1 | 21:45 |
| Dr_Willis | then do the 3 commands | 21:45 |
| ActionParsnip | meris: its the one I use, but I use cli for file stuff these days, i find it faster | 21:46 |
| truexfan81 | kk | 21:46 |
| truexfan81 | bbiab | 21:46 |
| Dr_Willis | that way you can see whats going o | 21:46 |
| Dr_Willis | on | 21:46 |
| ActionParsnip | meris: never had an issue tbh | 21:46 |
| scumbum | Vlah | 21:46 |
| Meris | ActionParsnip, I use cli for almost everything, excpet when I want to manipulate specific files that do not fit into a regex. | 21:46 |
| ActionParsnip | meris: and web browsing :-) | 21:47 |
| harris | that doesnt work scumbum | 21:47 |
| harris | nothing happens after right click | 21:47 |
| Meris | ActionParsnip, yes, webbrowsing as well. Also, certain games... | 21:48 |
| scumbum | What is the application u want to install | 21:48 |
| truexfan81 | ok Dr_Willis i'm back | 21:49 |
| subz3r0 | ActionParsnip: thx for the advice but i found a better solution. Its called "vnStat" awesome tool. lovin it :) | 21:49 |
| ActionParsnip | meris: yeah, its cos of my job. learning vi too. very cool | 21:49 |
| ActionParsnip | subz3r0: cool | 21:49 |
| truexfan81 | Dr_Willis: chroot works fine, dpkg --configure -a works fine, terminal closes after apt-get install -fy | 21:49 |
| Meris | harris, did you try PlayOnLinux? It is mainly for installing games, but several popular apps are also included. Try it. | 21:49 |
| scumbum | harris: did you install winehq from software center | 21:50 |
| subz3r0 | it does exactly what I want. making stats day,week, month, year and you can compare the stats and much more. just awesome | 21:50 |
| Dr_Willis | truexfan81: what are you trying to fix anyway? | 21:50 |
| truexfan81 | Dr_Willis: trying to remove lilo and install grub | 21:50 |
| scumbum | harris: you need winehq installed | 21:51 |
| truexfan81 | i forgot to mention its a debian system, they don't have a nice grub repair tool tho | 21:51 |
| Meris | ActionParsnip, I have a love/ hate with vi myself. It's extremely fast and efficient, but when you think you are in command mode and you are not or vice versa, it's X-( | 21:51 |
| Dr_Willis | truexfan81: how do you even have lilo? you on some old old machine? | 21:51 |
| RainbowW | i have a user who wants to browse a website from her cell phone, but wants to appear as if she's coming from the ubuntu box. would an openvpn tunnel from the phone to the ubuntu server be the right direction to go to solve this problem? | 21:51 |
| Dr_Willis | truexfan81: sounds like you got deeper issues if that command is causing some sort of crash thats closing the x term | 21:51 |
| OerHeks | harris still trying to make the iOS game hack exe work ? > http://ultimateprogamecheats.blogspot.nl/2012/12/clash-of-clans-hack-tool.html | 21:52 |
| Dr_Willis | RainbowW: or a proxy | 21:52 |
| truexfan81 | Dr_Willis: debian wheezy netinstall, kept putting me at grub repair so i gave up on it and installed lilo | 21:52 |
| pervy | ciao | 21:52 |
| pervy | >/list | 21:52 |
| scumbum | I like gedit or kate | 21:52 |
| Draxelis | Aww, use this scenario and nautilus will crash: on your desktop create one link (shortcut) to a folder that is on a partition that isnt mounted automatically when OS starts. Restart. Boot up Ubuntu and obviously links don't work since partition isn't mounted. After you mount the partition, 1) these shortcuts still don't work; 2) if you go to that mounted partition and right click 'properties' of that folder that you linked to, new n | 21:52 |
| Draxelis | autilus will crash. | 21:52 |
| ActionParsnip | meris: its good to learn imho. its on all nix boxes too, nano isnt always around, especially on the solaris boxes i look after | 21:53 |
| Dr_Willis | !list > pervy | 21:53 |
| ubottu | pervy, please see my private message | 21:53 |
| Meris | ActionParsnip, nano is much too limited for my use of vi. I just have to grin and bear it from time to time ;-P | 21:53 |
| minas | Today I logged in my guest account and I noticed that when minimizing a window, the animation was slower than when doing so in my (non-guest) account. And it looks cooler. Is there a way to do it, through Compiz config maybe? (I'm using 13.04) | 21:53 |
| truexfan81 | Dr_Willis: now i'm trying to install grub to fix another problem lol custom kernel is mounting the hdds as readonly, lilo is not giving me a menu to choose kernels, thats why i want grub, so i can boot back the the generic kernel | 21:53 |
| ChrisHPHP | hey there, is there a specific chat for ubuntu 13.04? | 21:54 |
| ActionParsnip | meris: aye but for simple changes I still use it. | 21:54 |
| ActionParsnip | chrishphp: here as it is released | 21:54 |
| scumbum | Vi and nano are a pain whatd wrong with gedit | 21:54 |
| minas | ChrisHPHP, this one will do :) | 21:54 |
| ActionParsnip | scumbum: servers dont have guis | 21:54 |
| minas | scumbum, they are useful when conencted through SSH and don't have a gui available | 21:55 |
| harris | yes | 21:55 |
| Meris | scumbum, have you ever seen gedit on a router? Hmm? | 21:55 |
| scumbum | Ok | 21:55 |
| minas | and gedit? Come on man, geany :) | 21:55 |

| savio | Hey guys | 21:57 |
| scumbum | harris: did you install wine | 21:58 |
| harris | yes | 21:58 |
| Meris | harris, I see. Crossover won't help you with that, I'm afraid. Only useful for industry standard major programs like Adobe Suites, Microsoft Office and similar mainstream programs. | 21:59 |
| harris | ok | 21:59 |
| scumbum | harris: right click exe and select open with wine | 21:59 |
| harris | wine or wine program loader | 21:59 |
| savio | 2nd one | 22:00 |
| scumbum | harris: yeah program loader | 22:00 |
| Meris | harris, try wibom, that way you won't contaminate your main .wine prefix | 22:00 |
| Biomechd | hey guys, i think i might've set my font-rendering to root-only when trying to install a new font. how can i change it back? | 22:01 |

| betrayd | Dr_Willis: some fights you got to cut your losses | 22:04 |
| wilee-nilee | ChrisHPHP, Cinnamon is not really a ubuntu support topic, you might try the ubuntu forums, if no one answers here | 22:04 |
| harris | scumbum, | 22:04 |
| harris | it says it can be installed on linux | 22:04 |
| Dr_Willis | harris: perhaps you chould be checking with that apps support forums/site/whatever then | 22:05 |
| Meris | Dr_Willis,, are you using a 64bits OS perchance? dotnet on 64bits might as well be called dontnet | 22:05 |
| scumbum | harris: that hack may need game installed first | 22:05 |
| OerHeks | harris, where does it say that? | 22:05 |
| harris | the game is for ios | 22:05 |
| harris | the hack is for mac windows and linux | 22:05 |
| Dr_Willis | scumbum: you plug in your phone, run that app.. and it hacks your game.. somehow... | 22:05 |
| harris | no you dont need to plug in phone | 22:05 |
| Dr_Willis | scumbum: and the site is somewhat susicious | 22:05 |

| esben | And it should work | 22:07 |
| andreligne | Yo guys! I would like to swap my Alt keys and I can't get it to work with Xmodmap | 22:07 |
| Meris | harris, than you can try to install dotnet in that wine bottle in wibom. *try* is the right word here, because dotnet is a pita under wine. | 22:07 |
| harris | what a what a what | 22:08 |
| Dr_Willis | the winetricks tool can setup .net i think in wine | 22:08 |

| dcosta | any one use Lirc arround here ? | 22:08 |
| harris | how do i install exe using wine tricks | 22:08 |
| Meris | Dr_Willis, only on 32 bits OS'es and who in his/ her right mind runs 32 bits OS'es these days? | 22:08 |
| Dr_Willis | harris: you dont. winetricks is a special tool for wine to configure/install stuff not install arbitary exes | 22:09 |
| harris | i just want to use it | 22:09 |
| savio | Dr_Willis for an android | 22:09 |
| Dr_Willis | savio: i use andchat on my phone i recall. or ssh/weechat :) | 22:10 |
| Meris | harris, it *might* help you to install dotnet, but only if you are using a 32 bits wine prefix. | 22:10 |
| Ansikt | My machine will not boot and I am absolutely at my wits end :( | 22:10 |
| dcosta | any one use lirc arround here ? the tv infra red software | 22:10 |

| Biomechd | i accidentally set my font-rendering to root-only in the terminal with something like "sudo chmod 644 -f /usr/share/fonts*", how do i change it back? | 22:12 |

| Biomechd | ericluwolf: what's the user code? | 22:12 |
| Dr_Willis | OerHeks: more im looking at it.. the more it seems to be just malware.. | 22:12 |

| harris | when i search wine in the dash i only get configute and uninstall | 22:13 |

| randy_ | Hey everyone | 22:14 |

| johnjohn1011 | what up rando? | 22:14 |
| randy_ | doing good | 22:15 |
| Dr_Willis | choose one of the offers to download.... yea.. thats soo 1990s | 22:15 |
| Meris | harris, if you really want to run it, it *might* just run in a VirtualBox install of a suitable Windows version. if you have a spare Windows license laying around that allows you to install it into a virtual machine. | 22:15 |
| Ansikt | So, I try this again to no avail. So, thinking that because my entire linux setup was encased in an extended volume (Windows took three partitions D;) maybe that screwed with my boot. Whatever. I download super-grub-disk and boot into the host machine and try running grub-update, grub-install and boot-repair from there. Again, my machine gives me no love. | 22:15 |
| alien2050 | Ansikt: from the liveusb, I usually do sudo mkdir /1 && sudo mount /dev/sda1 /1 (where sda1 is your linux partition, then sudo grub-install --root-directory=/1 then reboot, bingo | 22:15 |
| randy_ | have a quick question | 22:15 |
| randy_ | i got fluendo dvd player on 13.04 | 22:15 |
| dcosta | !ASK | 22:15 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 22:15 |
| dcosta | !ask | 22:15 |
| ericluwolf | Biomechd: it's 755 on my machine | 22:15 |
| Dr_Willis | Meris: i really like how the site has a big 'Protected by the DMCA' Icon on it.. | 22:16 |
| randy_ | i get "Could not get/set settings from/on resource" with fluendo dvd player on 13.04 | 22:16 |
| Biomechd | ericluwolf: and how do i open a virtual terminal? | 22:16 |
| harris | i have wine 1.4.1 | 22:16 |
| Meris | Dr_Willis, yes, that is really assuring, that. Hmmprfff >_< | 22:17 |
| Ansikt | So, from here I am really perplexed. So, I make the Ubuntu live usb again. This time, I use parted to make a ~10 gig primary partition at the beginning of the disk. I checked the partition and install Ubuntu 12.10 in it. So, I reboot my machine and NO OPERATING SYSTEM greets me. | 22:17 |
| dcosta | any one have lirc working ? | 22:17 |
| ericluwolf | Biomechd: Ctrl + Alt + F1 | 22:17 |
| wilee-nilee | Ansikt, From the desktop you would run sudo grub-install /dev/sdX X is the mbr of the hd then run sudo update grub | 22:17 |

| Meris | dcosta, there might be a separate #lirc channel here, if the project is still actively maintained | 22:18 |
| CarlFK | after I edit /etc/grub.d/25_ipxe, what to I run to regenerate grub.cfg? | 22:19 |
| Ansikt | At this point I would just reinstall the whole damn thing, but I've got an encrypted home and there's some sensitive data that I haven't backed up yet. *sigh* | 22:19 |
| Biomechd | ericluwolf: so do i log in as root or just my normal user? | 22:19 |

| ericluwolf | Biomechd: your normal user should suffice. Then sudo chmod -R 755 /usr/share/fonts | 22:20 |
| ericluwolf | Biomechd: And then to get back to a GUI, just Ctrl + Alt + F7 | 22:20 |

| LiquidDemocracy | After entering the password on the login page it will jump right back to the login page. | 22:22 |
| LiquidDemocracy | OerHeks, yes | 22:22 |
| RainbowW | why would apt-get not install a file in /etc/init.d/ if it's in the package? i don't understand why this script hasn't installed. | 22:22 |
| davidscherer | wilee-nilee: How? | 22:22 |
| wilee-nilee | !nomodeset | davidscherer | 22:22 |
| ubottu | davidscherer: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 22:22 |
| randy_ | Rainbow: I'm not sure either. | 22:22 |

| randy_ | Any idea what "Could not get/set settings from/on resource" means with fluendo dvd player on 13.04? It worked on 12.04 no problem | 22:26 |

| Biomechd | ericluwolf: maybe i just have the file directory wrong. what command can i use to see all the folders in a directory? | 22:41 |
| ericluwolf | Biomechd: ls -l | 22:41 |
| harris | scumbum, well | 22:42 |
| Dr_Willis | chomwitt: just do a sudo apt-get update,. and sudo apt-get upgrade and see what happens | 22:42 |
| davidscherer | Okay, I have no idea where to set nomodeset adding to the end of GRUB didn't work, but I was able to boot in and run update manager and it says 13.04 is available, should I upgrade to that? | 22:43 |
| scumbum | harris: do u have winetricks installed | 22:43 |
| harris | yes | 22:43 |
| davidscherer | Additionally, I can't really do anything. | 22:43 |
| davidscherer | I had to use Ctrl+Alt+T to get a terminal to rub update-manager | 22:43 |
| Biomechd | ericluwolf: when i try to access the /usr/share folder from the terminal, it says the directory doesn't exist,even though it shows up with "ls -l" | 22:44 |
| wilee-nilee | davidscherer, Not without a update and upgrade within the install, that might fix any problems. | 22:44 |
| davidscherer | And I keep getting Ubuntu has experienced and internal error, and show details just shows /usr/bin/cairo-dock and a loading circle | 22:44 |
| ericluwolf | Biomechd: are you trying to cd to the directory or do a chmod on it | 22:45 |
| wilee-nilee | davidscherer, That is apport reporting, tick the ignore in the popup. | 22:45 |
| davidscherer | wilee-nilee: Update manager says I'm up to date but I'm running 12.10 and 13.04 is available. | 22:45 |

| ericluwolf | Biomechd: make sure you're typing the absolute path | 22:46 |
| davidscherer | And I can't seem to actually get the GUI working completely, | 22:46 |
| wilee-nilee | davidscherer, So in details what is the problem. | 22:46 |
| davidscherer | I have a background image, but no taskbar at the top. | 22:46 |
| wilee-nilee | davidscherer, When you upgrade a release you generally have to reinstall graphic divers if you had to install them in the privious OS. | 22:47 |
| randy_ | davidscherer: is this 13.04? | 22:47 |
| scumbum | harris: is their options in winetrick to install mono or net framework | 22:47 |
| wilee-nilee | 12.10 | 22:47 |
| harris | how do i open wine tricks | 22:47 |
| davidscherer | wilee-nilee: /usr/bin/cairo-doc and it says it crashed with sigsegv | 22:48 |
| davidscherer | randy_: 12.10 from 12.04 | 22:48 |
| wilee-nilee | davidscherer, cairo crashes in my 13.04 so I would just use it if it works honestly. | 22:49 |
| davidscherer | Also "Application compiz crashed unexpectedly" | 22:49 |
| Dr_Willis | harris: http://wiki.winehq.org/winetricks | 22:49 |
| wilee-nilee | davidscherer, I never upgrade releases, you might try a live cd of what you want and see if it runs. | 22:49 |
| wilee-nilee | davidscherer, Or make another user and see how it runs. | 22:50 |
| scumbum | harris: look for winetricks in applications | 22:50 |
| harris | i opened it | 22:50 |

| bleemoo | Question about upgrading. I am currently running 12.10. I'm not a huge fan of Unity, and getting Gnome to work in 12.10 was complicated at best. I know Ubuntu-GNOME is now an official flavor; is there a way I can upgrade directly to it, or is that only an option on a new install?? | 23:12 |
| Dr_Willis | bleemoo: just install gnome shell and select it at the login screen | 23:13 |
| Dr_Willis | I had no issues geting gnome shell working on 12.10 | 23:13 |
| Dr_Willis | thought it was rather trivial... | 23:13 |
| bleemoo | That was the advice I got for 12.10, and it worked but was messy and buggier than it should be. Or maybe GNOME is just inherently buggier than I think it is. | 23:14 |
| Dr_Willis | bleemoo: no idea what you did.. but i dont recall hearing of many people with issues running gnome-shell on 12.10 | 23:15 |
| Dr_Willis | if you want the latest gnome shell you will want to be using 13.04 however | 23:15 |
| wilee-nilee | never had problems with the shell form 12.04 to 13.04 | 23:15 |
| wilee-nilee | from* | 23:15 |
| tannji | so far 13.04 is running fine, and Unity is noticeably smoother as well. | 23:16 |
| wilee-nilee | good additions in the 13.04 shell | 23:16 |
| bleemoo | *shrug* Perhaps I installed it wrong. Things like I can't right-click on icons in the menu bar anymore have been frustrating. | 23:16 |
| tannji | on a related note: Just realized I havent logged into win7 in 3 weeks... lol | 23:16 |

| Stameni | were there any updates since official relese of ubuntu 13.04 ? | 23:21 |
| Stameni | whenever i check, there are no updates available | 23:21 |
| DarkEra | Stameni, i think not, so don't worry about it | 23:23 |
| scumbum | bleemoo: mate or cinnamon seem better | 23:23 |
| Stameni | DarkEra, tnx, i was thinking that something is wrong with my packages | 23:23 |
| DarkEra | Stameni, the update manager will pop up once updates are available | 23:24 |
| bleemoo | scumbum: "seem better" is pretty subjective; what about them is better? | 23:24 |
| scumbum | bleemoo: we could start flaming war like comparing KDE GNOME etc etc... | 23:25 |
| DarkEra | Stameni, also, most of the time after the final release there are just a few updates and sometimes not :) | 23:25 |
| bleemoo | I have no desire to do that at all. | 23:25 |
| Stameni | DarkEra, tnx for the explanation | 23:25 |
| DarkEra | you're welcome | 23:26 |
| bleemoo | But I do want a GUI that I will be happy with and that will work with my non-touch-screen device and for my non-admin skillset. | 23:26 |
| Dr_Willis | for low end or old skool type gui - its hard to beat lubuntu | 23:26 |
| Dr_Willis | for somthing more mondern gnome-shell is comming along nicely. unity in 13.10 is also getting more polished all the time | 23:27 |
| Dr_Willis | havent really noticed whats new in kde in 13.10 | 23:27 |
| johnjohn1011 | lubuntu is less resource intensive than xubuntu? | 23:27 |
| Dr_Willis | johnjohn1011: yes. | 23:27 |
| OerHeks | Kubuntu takes less resources than unity. | 23:27 |
| Dr_Willis | http://www.webupd8.org/2013/04/see-whats-new-in-kubuntu-1304-raring.html whats new in Kubuntu ;) | 23:27 |
| scumbum | bleemoo: install them all. I think cinamon is easiest to install. If any ask to change display mannager. Do not. Keep lightdm. My thoughts best for dual monitor login window | 23:27 |
| Dr_Willis | Gnome-shell is officially (some time in the future) adding its own gnome-2 fallback type mode.. so once that happens these gnome-2 forks may go away | 23:28 |
| sz_alex | helo | 23:29 |
| sz_alex | hello | 23:29 |
| bleemoo | Install more than one GUI? That... actually makes a lot of sense; I'm not sure why I didn't think of it before now. Thanks. | 23:29 |

| scumbum | Hare | 23:30 |
| Dr_Willis | harris: use the winetricks tool to install that msvb library perhaps. | 23:30 |
| gambolputty | hi | 23:30 |
| harris | hi | 23:30 |
| Dr_Willis | bleemoo: i have all the major desktops installed.. ;) about the only one i dont use is xubuntu | 23:30 |
| scumbum | harris: virtual box with complete install of windows may be your best bet to run hacked exe's | 23:31 |
| gambolputty | I could use some help. I was upgrading ubuntu 12.10 to 13.04 via downloaded files and the upgrading of the files crashed. I don't want to totally install 13.04 again because that would erase some vital files I've copied over. How can install 13.04 without losing anything? | 23:32 |
| Dr_Willis | gambolputty: best thing to do would be use a live cd. and backup those files somewhere.. just in case | 23:33 |
| gambolputty | they're already on my old computer, but I don't want to copy them over again | 23:33 |
| Dr_Willis | gambolputty: recoverying from a failed upgrade. can be very hard. | 23:33 |
| LiquidDemocracy | I need some help. After the upgrade to 13.04 I can not log into Ubuntu anymore. After entering the password for 2 seconds is seems to load the desktop but then it jumps right back to the login windows. | 23:33 |
| LiquidDemocracy | window | 23:33 |
| gambolputty | I was using another program during the upgrade | 23:33 |
| gambolputty | virtualbox in this case | 23:33 |
| Dr_Willis | LiquidDemocracy: does the guest user work? | 23:34 |
| harris | scumbum, that takes too long | 23:34 |
| Dr_Willis | LiquidDemocracy: common issue is the .Xauthority file in the users home gets owned by root. try logging in at the console and move/renameing the file | 23:34 |
| gambolputty | in my case the computer does boot up, but all I see is a graphical screen and no logon ability | 23:34 |
| LiquidDemocracy | Dr_Willis, hold on. I will try. | 23:34 |
| Dr_Willis | harris: how long have you been at this? :) | 23:34 |
| LiquidDemocracy | Dr_Willis, yes it does. | 23:34 |
| harris | idk | 23:34 |
| Dr_Willis | LiquidDemocracy: Try the .Xauthority trick. | 23:35 |
| punter | Is there no package I can install to get the system-tray back in Ubuntu 13.04? | 23:35 |
| scumbum | harris: not really install windows from iso. Less time than you spent already. | 23:35 |
| LiquidDemocracy | Dr_Willis, what is that? | 23:36 |
| Dr_Willis | punter: cairo-dock (and other docks) might have a system tray. | 23:36 |
| Dr_Willis | LiquidDemocracy: its a security file that gets owned by root by mistake at times. | 23:36 |
| punter | Dr_Willis: excellent, thanks! | 23:36 |
| Dr_Willis | LiquidDemocracy: common issue is the .Xauthority file in the users home gets owned by root. try logging in at the console and move/renameing the file | 23:36 |
| Dr_Willis | punter: i mentoned the use of a dock like a few hrs ago to you i recall.... | 23:37 |
| l057c0d3r | scumbum, well.. punter coould possibly check out ubuntu gnome.. there are extensions that will put a task tray on the top bar.. and there are other extensions to make it resemble a windows start bar.. and others like bolt / cario-dock combo which i find better then windows | 23:37 |
| LiquidDemocracy | Dr_Willis, sudo rm -f /home/me.Xauthority ? | 23:37 |
| l057c0d3r | oh wait.. | 23:37 |
| Dr_Willis | LiquidDemocracy: or just rename it.. | 23:37 |
| l057c0d3r | sorry i missed it u were talking to harris | 23:37 |
| Dr_Willis | sudo mv .Xauthority .Xauthority.old | 23:37 |
| gambolputty | The 13.04 DVD doesn't allow for a reinstall option with keeping my files. It will only erase them all. :( | 23:37 |
| punter | Dr_Willis: I missed that msg... I'll search for it | 23:37 |
| scumbum | harris: msvbc is visual basic | 23:37 |
| harris | so how do i install it | 23:38 |
| savio | harris crack exe some time just don't work with wine go with virtualization | 23:38 |
| Dr_Willis | harris: the wine tricks tool has options to install many support libs. | 23:38 |
| harris | under install app or windows dll | 23:39 |
| Dr_Willis | harris: no idea.. LOOK around and see | 23:39 |
| scumbum | bleemoo: install all the GUIs you want . Select during login | 23:39 |
| scumbum | harris: its a VB dll missing. Winehq does not support that version yet. | 23:39 |
| Dr_Willis | scumbum: a vb so new.. wine cant handle it. ;) | 23:40 |
| harris | ok | 23:40 |
| Dr_Willis | http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=15789 ---> says do --> winetricks vb6run | 23:41 |
| Dr_Willis | harris | 23:41 |
| Dr_Willis | Oh well | 23:41 |
| l057c0d3r | wait.. there is mono for most .net languages is there not?? | 23:43 |
| scumbum | harris: try in terminal WINETRICKS VB6RUN | 23:43 |
| l057c0d3r | a program i wrote in vb on windows ran fine as exe with mono on linux.. but think i had to use vb 2010 | 23:43 |
| l057c0d3r | or was it 2008 | 23:43 |
| l057c0d3r | sigh.. been a while now cant remember exactly | 23:43 |
| KBentley57 | Hey everyone. I'm running xubuntu, and I've just transitioned from 12.10 -> 13.04. I'm having a problem booting with the new kernel, as in, no boot. has anyone experienced similar issues? | 23:44 |
| KBentley57 | I tried a few different kernels from the ubuntu mainline releases, but only the 3.5.7 has worked. I've tried various 3.7 and 3.8 kernels, but no 3.6 at this point | 23:45 |
| wilee-nilee | KBentley57, no boot meaning in detail. | 23:45 |
| OerHeks | 13.04 comes with 3.8.0.19 ? | 23:45 |
| wilee-nilee | what happens with the other kernels, and have you modified grub? | 23:46 |
| scumbum | Winehq provdes the dlls to run windows exes | 23:46 |
| KBentley57 | no boot = black screen with no output. If i use nomodeset, i see very much garbled output that I cannot decipher, and it times out at around 34 seconds into the boot | 23:46 |
| KBentley57 | the same thing happens with kernels > 3.5.7. | 23:46 |
| KBentley57 | OerHeks, yes, that is correct | 23:46 |
| wilee-nilee | KBentley57, Have you had to install graphic drivers in the past? | 23:47 |
| KBentley57 | wilee-nilee, yes, I'm running the amd fglrx at the moment. But, before I upgraded, I uninstalled them just in case. | 23:47 |
| wilee-nilee | KBentley57, A upgrade needs all that setup run again | 23:48 |
| KBentley57 | wilee-nilee, would you care to explain more? | 23:48 |
| wilee-nilee | KBentley57, Distro upgrades will not save installed graphic setups as in being upgraded to the new needed. | 23:49 |
| wilee-nilee | in other words what you did to get 12.10 working you need to do in a upgrade to 13.04 | 23:50 |
| LiquidDemocracy | Dr_Willis, that didn't work. Any other idea? | 23:50 |
| KBentley57 | wilee-nilee, I didn't have the proprietary drivers installed at the time of upgrading. I prepared the system to as close as default as I could get. | 23:50 |
| KBentley57 | wilee-nilee, besides, i can't even get far enough to get the graphics drivers installed in the newer kernel | 23:51 |
| wilee-nilee | KBentley57, Have you installed the proprietary now in the same manner? | 23:51 |
| heneusl_pay | What shall be done to enable mp3 playback using Ubuntu 12 live CD? | 23:51 |
| KBentley57 | wilee-nilee, yes. After installing this kernel, I build the .deb packages and installed them. | 23:52 |
| wilee-nilee | KBentley57, So you were able to get in at one point and after this work you are broken? | 23:52 |
| jmnoz | so, installing mpd on ubuntu requires a lot of configuration to get it working with pulseaudio. What is really the downside of just using at as a user program instead of running it as a service? | 23:53 |
| Jordan_U | Ansikt: Please run boot info script and pastebin the RESULTS.txt that it produces. | 23:53 |
| Jordan_U | !bootinfo | Ansikt | 23:53 |
| ubottu | Ansikt: Boot info script is a usefull script for diagnosing boot problems. Run the script following the directions here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 and then look at RESULTS.txt (or !pastebin it for others to look at). | 23:53 |
| wilee-nilee | heneusl_pay, INstall the restricted-extras for your desktop or try vlc | 23:53 |
| bob___ | I have an issue with sshfs, I can see one directory in my mountpoint but not the other. Both directories are present on the server. Any ideas? | 23:53 |
| scumbum | heneusl_pay: you need to run it from usb . Use usb creator that allows persistant changes. Then install codec pack | 23:54 |
| heneusl_pay | wilee-nilee: The vlc plugin comes installed by default in firefox how shall I direct the mp3 stream to be played by it instead of the default action which is using rhythmbox. | 23:55 |
| Jordan_U | bob___: Please pastebin the output of "ls -l /full/path/to/directory/with/problem/../" on the server and on the client, as well as the output of "mount". | 23:55 |
| KBentley57 | wilee-nilee, let me restate it. in 12.10 I had fglrx. I removed it with synaptic prior to upgrading. I ran the sudo do-release-upgrade, and it finished. I wasn't able to boot into the 3.8.0-19 kernel at all; luckily I could boot into the 12.10 kernel, 3.5.0-27. That is what I booted into to try the other kernels. None of them worked except for the one I'm using now, 3.5.7. | 23:55 |
| wilee-nilee | heneusl_pay, As suggested if you want codecs and to be able to reboot and use again load a usb with persistence. | 23:55 |
| scumbum | heneusl_pay: you maybe albe to install codec pack running from cd but not sure. | 23:56 |
| wilee-nilee | KBentley57, Cool, hopefully that is enough info for those to help that know, not sure myself. ;) | 23:56 |
| KBentley57 | wilee-nilee, then at least you know more than me :) | 23:57 |
| heneusl_pay | How shall I direct the stream to the already installed VLC plugin? | 23:57 |
| tekkidd | Has this bug been fixed in 13.04: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/1102373 | 23:58 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1102373 in xorg-server (Ubuntu) "Xserver crashed when i try to drag and drop a picture in eog" [Undecided,Invalid] | 23:58 |
| scumbum | heneusl_pay: not sure. Maybe download mp3 then open with vlc | 23:58 |
